Absent celebratory messages like these, the top-selling and concurrent player count charts on Steam and SteamDB are one of the few concrete ways we have of determining a game&#8217;s sales success, but they&#8217;re only part of the picture for a multiplatform release.<\/p>\n<p>Oblivion&#8217;s presence on PC Game Pass doesn&#8217;t seem to have hurt its straight up PC sales all that much, though. It currently has the fourth-highest player count on the platform according to both <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/charts\" target=\"_blank\">Steam charts<\/a> and <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/steamdb.info\/charts\/\" target=\"_blank\">SteamDB<\/a>, nearing 200,000 players at the time of writing. It&#8217;s also number one on Steam&#8217;s <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/store.steampowered.com\/search\/?filter=globaltopsellers\" target=\"_blank\">official top sellers<\/a> list, and number two on the <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/steamdb.info\/stats\/globaltopsellers\/\" target=\"_blank\">SteamDB<\/a> best selling tracker.<\/p>\n<p>Both assess games by overall revenue (importantly, not number of units sold) over a set period of time\u2060\u201424 hours for Steam&#8217;s official count, with extra scoring weight applied to sales in the past three hours, according to <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/steamdb.info\/faq\/#why-steamdb-s-player-count-peaks-are-higher-than-other-sites\" target=\"_blank\">Steamworks documentation<\/a>. The fact that it&#8217;s overall revenue, including DLC and microtransactions, explains how weapon skin micro-economy Counter-Strike 2 and the $400+ Steam Deck remain perennial fixtures, while SteamDB may weight recent sales in a slightly different fashion, explaining the swapped positions of CS2 and Oblivion.<\/p>\n<p>Which is all very fascinating to me, and a helpful indicator of how Steam concurrents and best selling status relate to overall sales success for the multiplatform, Game Pass-accessible games coming out of Microsoft. Also, I guess the people wanted more Elder Scrolls. Who could have guessed?<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve personally been enchanted by a Microsoft-supplied code of the game, a remaster of a childhood favorite. The celebratory atmosphere has left me feeling conflicted, sometimes even physically queasy, in the context of the Palestinian Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) National Committee&#8217;s <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bdsmovement.net\/news\/boycott-microsofts-xbox\" target=\"_blank\">call to boycott Xbox products<\/a> in light of Microsoft&#8217;s business ties to Israel amid its ongoing genocide in Gaza and <a data-analytics-id=\"inline-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.amnesty.org\/en\/latest\/campaigns\/2017\/06\/israel-occupation-50-years-of-dispossession\/\" target=\"_blank\">illegal occupation of the West Bank<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;[Microsoft] provides the Israeli military with Azure cloud and AI services that are central to accelerating Israel\u2019s genocide of 2.3 million Palestinians in the illegally occupied Gaza Strip,&#8221; reads the announcement on the BDS website. &#8220;After 34 years of deep complicity with Israel\u2019s military, the Israeli army relies heavily on Microsoft to meet technological requirements of its genocide and apartheid regime.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>I don&#8217;t know what to say to a fellow Elder Scrolls fan looking to join in on this fun\u2014I particularly can&#8217;t speak from a position of moral authority, having played, enjoyed, and covered the game so much already. But it&#8217;s ultimately up to Microsoft to cleave its much-beloved games business from deadly serious, real-life politics.<\/p>\n<div class=\"product\"><a data-dimension112=\"45fb0fa6-0ea1-4b93-8083-0f703b1a7aab\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Oblivion remastered changes\" data-dimension48=\"Oblivion remastered changes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\"><\/p>\n<figure class=\"van-image-figure \" >\n<div class='image-full-width-wrapper'>\n<div class='image-widthsetter' style=\"max-width:847px;\">\n<p class=\"vanilla-image-block\" style=\"padding-top:100.00%;\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"Bx3x5ENSAUdput6Vqj9USS\" name=\"oblivion remastered maiq the liar\" caption=\"\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/arcader.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/oblivion-remastered-hit-4-million-players-in-less-than-a-week-with-a-big-chunk-of-them-buying-the-game-on-steam.jpg\" mos=\"\" align=\"middle\" fullscreen=\"\" width=\"847\" height=\"847\" attribution=\"\" endorsement=\"\" credit=\"\" class=\"\"><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/the-elder-scrolls\/oblivion-remastered-changes-features-list\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-dimension112=\"45fb0fa6-0ea1-4b93-8083-0f703b1a7aab\" data-action=\"Deal Block\" data-label=\"Oblivion remastered changes\" data-dimension48=\"Oblivion remastered changes\" data-dimension25=\"\"><strong>Oblivion remastered changes<\/strong><\/a>: What&#8217;s new and what&#8217;s not?<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/rpg\/oblivion-console-commands-cheats\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Oblivion console commands<\/strong><\/a>: Cheats new and old<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/the-elder-scrolls\/oblivion-how-to-get-lockpicks\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Oblivion lockpicks<\/strong><\/a>: Where and how to use them<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/the-elder-scrolls\/oblivion-vampirism-cure-benefits\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Oblivion vampirism cure<\/strong><\/a>: Rid yourself of the affliction<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/the-elder-scrolls\/oblivion-thieves-guild-join\/\" target=\"_blank\"><strong>Oblivion thieves guild<\/strong><\/a>: How to join the crew<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcgamer.com\/games\/the-elder-scrolls\/oblivion-remastered-hit-4-million-players-in-less-than-a-week-with-a-big-chunk-of-them-buying-the-game-on-steam\/\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>First reported by Eurogamer, Bethesda has publicly celebrated over four million players checking out its recently-launched remaster of The Elder Scrolls 4: Oblivion.
