PlayStation games have enjoyed a good reception in the last two years when it comes to their debut on Steam as a PC port. While Days Gone, in 2021, didn’t gain huge momentum in terms of engagement, it wasn’t bad by any means. Horizon Zero Dawn, on the other hand, had a stronghold on the platform, gaining a huge playerbase following its initial release. Now, a similar case has been noticed with the latest launch of God of War.
Benji, on Twitter, recently shared a major update regarding Steam and the game. The digital store recorded a peak figure of close to 50k concurrent players for the newly released God of War on PC.

All things considered, it’s a positive thing for all Sony in general. Because a good performance of their PC ports on Steam suggests that developers are finding new ways to optimize games on a new platform. Horizon Zero Dawn, Days Gone, and now God of War are great examples that reported no major case of crashes, bugs, or constant glitches.
God of War is now available for PC across the globe. Meanwhile, fans of the franchise are also hyped about its second installment, Ragnarok. The date for the latter, however, is yet to be confirmed by Santa Monica Studio.
