We know that player numbers are likely to settle at some point later down the line, but until then, we’re going to report some happy news for a plucky indie developer and its newly released title. Necesse, the 2-D sprite art multiplayer survivalbox RPG from developer Fair Games that released into 1.0 last weekend, has been doing some extremely solid numbers and raking in lots of gamer hype.
The studio’s Twitter account remarked this past Saturday how its player count was climbing past 20K, and sure enough its Steam concurrency was continuing to steadily rise over the weekend, topping off at nearly 30K by Sunday. User reviews on the platform are also extremely effusive, with the game garnering an “overwhelmingly positive” aggregate at the time of this writing.
While we don’t have hard numbers on Necesse’s sales figures after 1.0, we further spot the game in the top 15 of Steam’s top sellers at the moment, a fact that’s perhaps helped along by a 50% discount that’s running until October 30th as well as bundles that pack the game in with either Core Keeper or Palworld. Meanwhile, the devs have been busy crushing bugs in its most recent post-launch patch. These are all good thing, basically, and we like reporting good things.
