Kingdom Hearts Shakes up Steam Charts

More than three years after the PC versions of the Kingdom Hearts franchise launched on the Epic Games Store, Square Enix has released the games on Steam, with a classic collection dominating rather than the latest game. Otherwise, Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree casts its shadow.

The release of Square Enix's Kingdom Hearts series has made an impact on the weekly Steam charts. More than three years after its launch on the Epic Games Store, Kingdom Hearts -HD 1.5+2.5 ReMIX has made it into the top three in Germany, Austria and Switzerland, and is in fifth place worldwide. Kingdom Hearts 3, which was also released on Steam on the same day, is not listed in the top 20. Shin Megami Tensei V: Vengeance enters the charts in the bottom half. Elsewhere, Elden Ring Shadow of the Erdtree casts its shadow as the upcoming expansion (20 June) to Elden Ring. Rainbow Six Siege rises significantly due to the release of Operation New Blood. The same is true for PUBG: Battlegrounds, Fallout 76 and Helldivers 2.

Not included in the charts, as it is free to play and based on marketplace transactions, is the clicker game Banana, which yesterday set a new record with 858,915 concurrent active players.
