Split Fiction has rewritten EA's record books on Steam, achieving unprecedented success for a premium title under the publisher's banner. The development team has clearly struck gold with this breakout hit that's smashed through all projections.
A Steam Launch for the History Books
EA's latest PC release has taken Steam by storm, outperforming all other paid titles in the publisher's storied catalog. SteamDB tracking reveals Split Fiction soared to an astonishing peak of 197,000 concurrent players - a new high-water mark that leaves previous EA records in the dust.
For perspective, EA's previous paid-game champion Battlefield V peaked at just 116,000 players. The publisher's overall Steam record still belongs to free-to-play phenomenon Apex Legends, which has reached over 620,000 concurrent users.
Critical Acclaim to Match Commercial Success
Beyond its commercial triumph, Split Fiction has captured gamers' hearts. The Steam community has showered the title with glowing reviews, currently sitting at a staggering 98% positive rating. This rare "Overwhelmingly Positive" designation confirms the game isn't just selling well - it's genuinely winning over players worldwide.
