Split Fiction Breaks EA's Paid Game Record on Steam

Split Fiction has shattered records, achieving a historic milestone for Electronic Arts (EA) on Steam among paid games. Its impressive launch exceeded all expectations, capturing the gaming world's attention.

Released recently on Steam, Split Fiction's success significantly surpasses other EA-published titles. SteamDB data reveals a peak player count exceeding 197,000 users—the highest ever recorded for a paid EA game on the platform.

This achievement dwarfs previous records. Battlefield V, EA's closest competitor, previously held the record with a peak of 116,000 players. While Apex Legends remains EA's most popular title, its free-to-play model contributes to its significantly higher peak player count of over 620,000.

Beyond its remarkable commercial success, Split Fiction has garnered overwhelmingly positive player reviews on Steam, boasting an impressive 98% approval rating. This underscores the game's widespread appeal and critical acclaim.
