Oh boy, RimWorld’s made a wild comeback, huh? All thanks to that shiny new Odyssey DLC hitting the virtual shelves. I mean, it leapt up a crazy 58 notches—now that’s some serious hustle—landing in third place on Steam. They even tossed a 20% discount into the mix. Not gonna lie, I wish I could snag deals like that on real-world stuff.
Anyway, the Odyssey DLC is already turning heads, parking itself as the fifth top seller of the week since its debut on July 11th. Like, did everyone just collectively decide they needed this in their lives?
Meanwhile, Counter-Strike 2 is still holding strong at numero uno. And PUBG? It rocked up to second place, all jazzed up by some K-pop magic through a crossover with Aespa. Like, imagine gaming and K-pop colliding; it’s a frenzy out there.
Then there’s the Steam Deck, dropping a couple of pegs to fourth. I’ve always wondered about that thing—is it a game-changer or just another gadget? Who knows. But hey, Marvel Rivals by NetEase, riding high on a new content season, shot up to sixth. Twenty-five places up? That’s some serious dedication right there.
Indie darling Peak slipped a bit to No. 7, but it’s not slouching, with over 4.5 million copies out the door. I mean, if I sold 4.5 million of anything, I’d throw a mini parade.
Destiny 2 makes a comeback at eighth, probably vibing off its new expansion, The Edge of Fate, which dropped on July 15th. And let’s not forget Naraka: Bladepoint, clinging to ninth place, while Dead by Daylight, still spooking folks, rounds things out in tenth.
And in case you’re curious about the Steam chart rundown for the week ending July 15th, here it is, in all its glory:
1. Counter-Strike 2 — yep, Valve did it again.
2. PUBG: Battlegrounds — Krafton’s baby.
3. RimWorld — thanks, Ludeon Studios!
4. Steam Deck — Valve’s little gizmo.
5. RimWorld – Odyssey — as if once wasn’t enough.
6. Marvel Rivals — shoutout to NetEase.
7. Peak — Aggro Crab’s pride and joy.
8. Destiny 2 — Bungie’s still got it.
9. Naraka: Bladepoint — another win for NetEase.
10. Dead by Daylight — still playing mind games, courtesy of Behaviour Interactive.
There you go. I might’ve gone off-track a bit, but, you know, sometimes the chaos is where the fun’s at.
