A leak of Steam’s numbers has shown which games are the most popular and which are less. That happened right after Steam Summer Sales, which makes this more interesting. Of course, Borderlands 2 is on this list, and its numbers are astounding. We did not expect to see it competing with other great titles.
Recently, a vital leak exposed Steam’s numbers. Valve immediately did everything they could to fix this. However, the figures were already exposed to the public, and we got a taste of which games are higher and which are lower.
Fortunately, Borderlands 2 has some impressive numbers. Of course, we already knew that its players increased after the Steam Summer Sales event. The remarkable number of players in Borderlands 2 is that of 11.218.936. This is a decent amount considering that the game is a bit old. It was released back in 2012, and it is the fan-favorite title of the franchise.
Borderlands 2 comes right after GTA 5. That is worth mentioning only because we are talking about two entirely different video games. Moreover, these numbers represent players who have played Borderlands 2 at least once. Valve can track this because of the achievements addition to the game. People who bought the game and have not launched it yet are not included in the figures.
Of course, with all the rumors regarding the possibility of a third additional title or a remaster of the first title, it is not weird that its players are increasing. Recently, Amazon Italy leaked the release date of Borderlands 3. Moreover, the official Borderlands Twitter account posted a picture that had fans theorizing for hours. They think it is a hint to Borderlands: Remaster.
Borderlands 2’s numbers will continue going up until Borderlands 3 is released. Especially with the second title on sale in various stores, people will keep buying and playing the game. Borderlands 2’s prices on all these different sales are reduced substantially. That makes it easier for people who wanted to try the game out to end up buying it. This summer there will be many sales, so do not miss your chance to purchase the games you always wanted. For now, you can buy Borderlands 2 for a reasonable price at PlayStation’s Mid-Year Sales.
