Arrowhead’s chaotic alien-shooter Helldivers 2 became PlayStation’s fastest-selling game ever, but despite its initial success, player numbers have since declined.
A look at the game’s Steam charts shows a steady drop since February, when the game launched. According to SteamDB, at its peak in February shortly after launch, there were 458,709 concurrent players. In comparison, its peak over the last 30 days is 166,305. That’s a drop of 64 percent.
Looking by average players, February had 208,303 helldivers in the game. That average player count has dropped to 78,634 over the last 30 days (a 62 percent drop).
