Stellar Blade surpasses 100K concurrent players on PC at launch

The last couple of PlayStation-published PC titles, like Spider-Man 2, Until Dawn and The Last of Us 2, have failed to garner headlines. That changes this week with the launch of Stellar Blade, with the PC version amassing an impressive 100K concurrent players on day-one. 

Stellar Blade: Definitive Edition is now available on PC via Steam. On day-one, the game peaked at 100,904 concurrent players, making it the most-played single-player PlayStation-PC game.  Stellar Blade's launch beats out Ghost of Tsushima and God of War, which garnered around 75,000 concurrent players each.

Stellar Blade does fall short of Helldivers 2 though. Arrowhead's shooter shocked everyone when it surpassed 450,000 concurrent players on PC at launch. However, the key difference here is that Helldivers is a multiplayer title, and those tend to garner a lot more concurrent players than single-player titles.

The PC version of Stellar Blade launches with all the same content previously released on PS5. That means you get day-one access to 25 more costumes, a new boss battle and PC-specific features like support for ultrawide resolutions and upscaling methods like DLSS.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
