According to the service, the game reached 112,947 concurrent players on Steam in its first 24 hours. This is a figure usually seen with the most anticipated releases.
The game also showed an equally impressive result on Nintendo consoles. At the time of writing, Hades 2 holds the top spot in the Nintendo eShop digital sales chart, displacing Hollow Knight Silksong from the leading position.
Thus, the Supergiant Games franchise has captured the top of the eShop, and the Steam figures confirm the high interest in the sequel. Given the temporary exclusivity, even greater success can be expected when the game appears on other platforms.
