Gears 5 is an absolute disaster on Steam - Can't reach 10k concurrent players, complete sales failure

[102020393023445948594 2,223]

A lost exclusive for nothing.

 

Was it worth it MS? You sold out your fanbase for 8,000 concurrent people on steam?

Oh well, no wonder they haven't announced halo infinite for steam. This failed project will be shuttered soonn and Remij will go back to having nothing to play.  

 

pLay anywhere = GFWL 2.0

for comparison, borderlands 3 = 250k concurrent

 

Monster hunter world = 330k

 

COLOSSAL FAILURE

Was totally worth devaluing the XBox hardware brand

we'll never get the sales for this game lol. WAY down from what was expected, WAY down from Gears 4 and that's with Steam/3 platforms this time. Ouch.

 

This franchise is DONE

I'm sure tons of people don't have an XBox or PC, but the game is on their "back burner". No need to get an XBox, maybe if I I one day get a gaming PC.

 

Like me. Devalued the console, and people aren't rushing in on PC.

Maybe... just MAYBE.... the $2 Xbox Gamepass had something to do with it

Sure.. they gave the game away

Even in light of GamePass it still sold in the 75,000 range on Steam, and with GamePass it will have players and generate continued revenue forever on top of retail and digital sales. It's still selling at retail, it's still selling digitally, people are still buying it and people are enlisting to play it with GamePass. Promo's run out, people stick around, it's not in any kind of a bad or ominous position.

I think Halo MCC with it not being on Gamepass will be a better indication of how Xbox games could do on Steam.  We'll have to see.

 

Halo *should* do big numbers.

Trying to use Gamepass as a metric of the game's success when it's included in a box of pop-tarts.

It will be on PC gp?

[Remij 4,670]

Oh fuck.. looks like it is.

 

Well.. that's dumb of them.  They should give the Steam version a 3 month launch window before putting it on GP

Flop in rating and flop in sales. Xbone
