More popular than Elden Ring on Steam: Open-world role-playing game becomes bestseller

Wartales in the Steam bestsellers is currently not as good as Stray and No Man’s Sky, but the medieval RPG is currently more in demand than the Steam Deck and Elden Ring – and we can already imagine why that is.

Medieval RPG conquers Steam top sellers

The tactical role-playing game Wartales caused a stir at the end of last year. The huge open world game from Shiro Games started in December 2021 in the Early Access program on Steam and immediately took first place. Now Wartales is making a small comeback on Steam and currently occupies eighth place in the bestsellers (Source: Steam).

We assume that the combination of a recent update and the current sale from Wartales should ensure that the Steam game landed back in the charts. There is a 20 percent discount until July 27th – during this time Wartales only costs 27.99 euros instead of 34.99 euros.
