We know PlayStation has said they're investing into different type of GaaS games.

I mean, there will still be one or two FPS because PlayStation has been missing one of those for a long time.
But clearly Helldivers 2 is one of those mid budget game(for their own standards) and there's surely a couple others like that coming in.
The Horizon MP game is sure to be one of those PvE experiences as well, just like Monster Hunter.

Also, Helldivers 2 has reached 241k CCU.
245k is a lock at this point with 250k being a possibility as well.
HOLY FUCKING SHIT, OVER 250K! Today it passed Payday 2 and Team Fortress 2! Next victim: the F2P MP mode of Halo Infinite!
These are the all time Steam CCU peak for the Sony PS Studios games released on PC:
It's also right now top 1 in Steam top sellers or trending.
Regarding user reviews, Helldivers 2 started with a low score due to bug and complains about DRM (people seem to prefer pirated game and MP broken due to cheaters), but kept improving. As of now, Steam db numbers:
Remember their GaaS of these 12 batch are GT7 (racing), MLB (Baseball), Firewall Ultra (VR FPS), Helldivers 2 (coopp TPS), TLOU Online (RIP), Concord (PvP FPS), Marathon (PvP extraction shooter), Deviation's game (???), Fairgame$ (Team based Heist PvPvE), Horizon Online (Monster Hunter co-op), pretty likely Firesprite's game with car combat and some other one, maybe Knack Online (Hug Royale).

I think that as Hermen says they are doing, they should try to approach GaaS from different genres and subgenres, trying to appeal different type of players. I personally prefer SP, but in MP for me I prefer PvE than PvP because in PvP normally the stuff gets too competitive, hard and frustrating.

No, but tomorrow is extremely likely.
There's so many more people who will hop on the game on a Friday, we won't have to wait for Saturday to topple Halo.
Btw somehow you have payday 2 below the finals even though it has a higher peak ccu
240k on a thursday means we might be seeing 300k+ on the weekend if the servers hold up
Over 250K on Steam means over 500K CCU total. I'd say it sold minimum 3M total in the first week being conservative.
I'd bet it will be tomorrow or Saturday.
Thanks, just fixed it.

It's going to beat everything easy until Destiny 2. Honestly I think it's going to beat that too
254K, just passed Team Fortress 2. I think today will end very close to Halo Infinite and tomorrow will pass Halo and Dying Light, ending this weekend around 300K+`, which I assume will be the peak forever.It's going to beat everything easy until Destiny 2. Honestly I think it's going to beat that too
Normally games have their peak the launch day, launch weekend or second weekend. Maybe this case is special and peaks later once they really fix the matchmaking, but I wouldn't bet on it.
But it would be funny to pass Halo Infinite today that MS announced their PS ports.
Resounding success beyond my wildest expectations. Happy for ArrowHead and PlayStation both deserves this hit.
Now this is what you call organic success. I truly hope they fully backing this studio going forward.

I truly think if they were to add pvp and vehicles that Sony could have a cod killer on their hands. Stratagems are basically kill streaks
