Steam Shatters EA's Sales Record: Split Fiction Triumphs

Split Fiction has shattered records, achieving a historic milestone for Electronic Arts (EA) on Steam. This paid title’s impressive launch far surpassed expectations, captivating the gaming community.

Released recently on Steam, Split Fiction's success stands out among other EA games. SteamDB data reveals a peak player count exceeding 197,000 users—a new high for any paid EA game on the platform. This significantly surpasses Battlefield V’s previous record of 116,000 peak players. While EA’s free-to-play Apex Legends remains the most popular, with over 620,000 peak players, Split Fiction’s achievement is remarkable within the paid game segment.

Beyond its commercial triumph, Split Fiction has earned overwhelming critical acclaim. Steam reviews overwhelmingly praise the game, boasting a remarkable 98% positive rating. This demonstrates not only the game's financial success but also its widespread appeal and high quality.
