New Digimon Story RPG Dazzles Fans with Record-Breaking Steam Performance

This new installment in the franchise offers an immersive role-playing experience that has captivated many enthusiasts who were once thought to favor other popular series. The game has managed to rally a strong following and brought fresh energy to the Digimon universe.

At the time of reporting, the title drawn from the Digimon Story series achieved a peak of 84,458 simultaneous players on the Steam platform, as tracked by a third-party database. This impressive figure underscores the game’s popularity and its successful launch on a well-established digital storefront.

Reviewing its performance reveals that the title stands as the third most-engaged Japanese role-playing game on the service. Notable competitors that have drawn larger crowds include Metaphor: ReFantazio and Granblue Fantasy: Relink, while other renowned series like Persona and Final Fantasy have seen comparatively lighter participation.

Previous entries in the franchise have not reached these heights. For example, one earlier title in the collection registered roughly 6,000 concurrent users during its debut, while another installment experienced an even smaller launch audience of about 3,000 players.

Currently, the game enjoys a Very Positive rating on Steam, reflecting widespread approval from its community. Critics have noted that while the gameplay and launch success are commendable, the storyline could have been more ambitious in its execution.
