Split Fiction has shattered records, achieving a historic milestone for Electronic Arts (EA) on Steam among paid games. Its impressive launch exceeded all expectations, capturing the gaming world's attention.
Released recently on Steam, Split Fiction's success significantly surpasses other EA-published titles. SteamDB data reveals a peak player count exceeding 197,000 users—the highest ever recorded for a paid EA game on the platform. This dwarfs the previous record-holder, Battlefield V, which peaked at 116,000 players. While EA's free-to-play Apex Legends remains the most popular title with over 620,000 peak players, Split Fiction's achievement is a remarkable feat for a paid game.
Beyond its commercial triumph, Split Fiction has garnered overwhelmingly positive player reviews on Steam, boasting a remarkable 98% approval rating. This underscores not only its financial success but also its widespread appeal and critical acclaim among gamers globally.
