Paul Tassi has made an obvious observation by way of steam… that the 30-day avg for Destiny’s most recent expansion Lightfall has performed better than launch window of any previous expansion with a concurrent avg of 135k players a day for the month of March. Destiny has not had a daily concurrent avg over 100k since November 2019 on steam. Since then it has also launched on Epic’s and Window’s pc game stores.
Shadowkee’s release and performance is somewhat disregarded as that was also the game’s steam and f2p launch of the first two years of content now deleted from the game. Also, not so surprising as the game surpassed its previous all time concurrent number with Lightfall.
I would like to note that the month to the month average of the game is dependent on when a piece of content drops. It just so happened that Lightfall launched during the first week of the month. Meaning third and final month of the season will tank and look much worse comparatively.
However, daily numbers are still impressive … according to API data provided by destinytracker 1.3 million logged into pve activities and 930k logged into PvP yesterday alone.
I believe the seasonal and expansion content has fully rolled out so playerbase should be winding down where breaking 100k concurrent won’t be a daily thing anymore.
If the follow-up season launches strong then yea Bungie might be looking at their strongest year with the game yet.
