WARDOGS continues to exceed expectations following its Early Access launch, with Bulkhead’s new first-person shooter surpassing 400,000 concurrent players on Steam after selling 1.25 million copies within its first day.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The shooter launched into Steam Early Access on September 10 and quickly climbed the platform’s charts. According to SteamDB data, RATNI PSI<\/a> has now reached a peak of 400,196 concurrent players<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That’s another significant jump for a game that had already attracted nearly a quarter of a million active players during testing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WARDOGS Reviews Recover After Difficult Launch Day<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The impressive player numbers come alongside a major improvement in the game’s Steam reception.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

WARDOGS initially received a wave of negative reviews following technical and stability problems on launch day. However, sentiment quickly changed as Bulkhead<\/a> responded to problems and communicated directly with its growing community.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

According to SteamDB, September 11 passed without a single negative Steam review being recorded<\/strong>. Negative reviews began appearing again on September 12, but positive reviews continued to significantly outweigh them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bulkhead’s frequent communication with players has also received considerable praise, with the studio openly discussing issues and its plans for improving the game throughout Early Access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bulkhead Has a Huge Early Access Hit<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

WARDOGS reportedly sold 1.25 million copies within its first 24 hours<\/strong>, and its continued growth suggests that figure has already increased considerably.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The studio has previously made it clear that Early Access will last for at least a year as it continues developing the game toward its full 1.0 release.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Console players will have a much longer wait. Bulkhead has confirmed that WARDOGS won’t arrive on consoles before 2028 at the earliest<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For now, however, its Steam launch has given Bulkhead an enormous audience to build upon, with more than 400,000 concurrent players<\/strong> marking another major milestone just days into Early Access.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
