Console Ports Ruled on Steam in January, Including God of War

Valve has released a list of the biggest releases of January 2022 on Steam. The criterion was the revenue generated within first two weeks of the debut. The month was full of interesting games. Strong debuts were recorded by the PC versions of God of War and Monster Hunter: Rise.

The erotic puzzle game Mirror 2: Project X was also very popular, which is due to, among other things, low price. Moreover, Warm Snow, a Chinese action RPG inspired by Hades, also had an excellent debut.

Traditionally, no specific sales results or even the correct order of titles were revealed. That's why we added estimates of the paid version of SteamSpy to the list. Unfortunately, they can be very inaccurate, so approach the data below with caution. Please also note that this website provided the total number of owners of the given game, and some of them (Bloody Spell and Democracy 4) were previously available in Early Access.

2. Humankind: Cultures of Africa Pack
3. Cities: Skylines - Airports
4. DJMAX RESPECT V - V EXTENSION II PACK
5. Cities: Skylines - Content Creator Pack: Map Pack

January's biggest F2P launches (by concurrent player count)

Valve also published an additional list, including the most popular F2P launches of January. In this case, the criterion was the number of players. We sorted the following list according to the overall activity record of the game in question (obtained from SteamDB's estimates), and not just the one achieved last month, as this gives a better idea of particular game's level of success on Steam.
