Hades 2’s God-Like Steam Player Count Hits a Milestone the OG Could Only Dream of

After selling over a million copies in just three days after its 1.0 release, Hades was clearly a major commercial win for Supergiant Games. However, it didn’t actually reach as large an audience as one might expect. When the game initially launched in early access on Steam – following a year as an exclusive on the Epic Games Store – it only peaked at around 6,000 concurrent players. While this wasn’t entirely unexpected, given that Hades wasn’t widely known at the time, its full release didn’t perform much better on Valve’s platform. SteamDB data shows that Hades reached only 37,000 concurrent players in the days following its 1.0 launch – a small fraction of the number of Steam users that Hades 2 attracted when it was released.
