Based on the player counts and feedback, it seems like most gamers are saving their money for the dev’s upcoming zombie parkour sequel and/or other BR games.ĭying Light 2's Launch Already Has 4x More Players Than the Original Game's All-Time Peak on Steam GitHyp Dying Light: Bad Blood is now free if you own the original game Rock, Paper, Shotgun Dying Light: Bad Blood is now free for all Dying Light owners Community Announcements Update 0.3.3 | New Threat, Voice Chat, New Languages and more Community Announcements LEADERBOARDS, NEW CHALLENGES AND IMPROVEMENTS Community Announcements NEW THREAT & CHALLENGE game update Community Announcements MARCH ROADMAP Community Announcements HOT FIX - Matchmaking Community Announcements We see double on Valentine’s Day - DUO MODE OUT NOW Community Announcements DUO MODE | Steam Key Giveaway Community Announcements #PlayWithDevs Event Community Announcements Dying Light Bad Blood | February ROADMAP Community Announcements HARRAN WEATHER FORECAST: new content and gameplay upgrades Community Announcements New Challenges, Potions, Throwables & more | Update 0.2.11 Community Announcements SLASHING ALL THE WAY event & new exclusive content | Update 0.2.10 Community Announcements New in-game event and patch 0.2.9 are here Community Announcements Get more rewards with Stash Craze Event and see patch 0.2.8 notes Community Announcements Patch 0.2.7 - Bugs squashing and matchmaking improvements Community Announcements Patch 0.2.6 - Celebrate 100 Years of Polish Independence, new skin and language added. Bad Blood’s debut peaked at #8 on Twitch and reviews on Steam have been mixed - a stark contrast to Dying Light’s very positive reviews.ĭespite often being praised by gamers, Techland’s decision to make Bad Blood a stand-alone game isn’t winning over fans and certainly isn’t paying off for the developer. What’s also surprising is the lack of streamers on Twitch promoting the game and the overall reception from players. That hasn’t been the case.Īnd by the look of the game’s current population, Bad Blood is going to have to go the free-to-play in order to survive as players are already complaining about the matchmaking taking too long just to fill up the new 12-player game mode. By offering Bad Blood at $19.99, Techland must have hoped to bring back at least half the player base… if not more new players from the BR crowd.
The original Dying Light still sells for $39.99 on Steam and peaked as high as 20k concurrent players during recent sales. Its weak launch was far lower than other recent failed battle royale games and 94% lower than Dying Light’s peak of 8k concurrent players this month.
In its first week on Steam, Dying Light: Bad Blood peaked at just 455 concurrent players. The result? A $19.99 standalone early access game with mixed reviews on Steam and very low player counts that are already at times under 100 concurrent players online. Now, with Dying Light 2 officially announced (but still with no official release date), the devs have jumped in on the battle royale craze to try and squeeze what’s left out of the original game’s engine before the sequel. 2015’s Dying Light instantly became one of the most successful zombie games ever on Steam with an impressive peak of 45k players at launch.Īnd since then, Techland has managed to keep Dying Light in Steam’s Top 100 most played games by constantly releasing new free content.
