Overview
- The game, which launched into Early Access on 10 September, has sold more than 2 million copies as confirmed by the developer on 15 September.
- SteamDB recorded a first‑week peak of 428,666 concurrent players, a figure that placed Wardogs among the top 40 all‑time Steam peaks and briefly made it one of the most‑played PC games.
- High demand overwhelmed infrastructure at launch, producing long login queues and downtime that Bulkhead addressed with hotfixes, staged logins and reversals of wrongful anti‑cheat bans.
- Player response has stayed strong, with Steam user reviews averaging 'Very Positive' and public congratulations from fans and other developers on social media.
- The success gives Bulkhead its biggest commercial hit and raises new challenges for the studio to sustain engagement, scale live‑service operations and deliver planned updates and console ports.
