Yesterday was a great day for Destiny 2. The game’s last expansion, Shadowkeep, ended up launching, but Destiny 2 was also found in a new free model called New Light and coming to Steam. A Git Hyp report confirms that the game saw a peak of more than 200,000 concurrent users on its launch day on the Steam / PC front. It reached 219,000 users at one point, indicating that the game could continue to be a success.
In addition to being on PC now, Destiny 2 Shadowkeep and New Light are also available on PS4 and Xbox One. Stay tuned in the next few days to hear more of our thoughts on the game’s most recent expansion.
The only three games that beat Destiny 2 in popularity among concurrent users were favorites such as DOTA 2, Counter-Strike: GO, and PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
We will see how the game works in the coming weeks, but we hope that Bungie people have a smile on their faces after going through this complete transition from Battle.net to Steam.
Bungie also solved the problem with Forsaken’s lost content, which weighed heavily on loyal fans’ minds. Destiny 2 is now available for PC, as well as for Xbox One and PlayStation 4.
