Resident Evil Requiem Crosses 300,000 Peak Concurrent Steam Players, Sets New Franchise Record

The recent launch of Requiem on Steam is remarkably successful. It reached a peak of 168,191 concurrent players, surpassing even Resident Evil 4 Remake (which peaked at 168,191) and ranking third behind Resident Evil Village (106,631). Given that Resident Evil 4 Remake was a remake of a classic and Resident Evil Village was the most recent major installment in that series, Requiem’s performance is a huge achievement. As for all games published by this company on Steam, Requiem currently ranks fifth, trailing only Monster Hunter World, and this is before the full weekend player count is tallied.
