As the Escalation of Freedom update launched on August 6, 2024, we expect even more players will be diving back into the game to experience the array of new content.
It’s also worth noting that this player count doesn’t factor in those on PlayStation, only Steam. As a concurrent launch across PS5 and PC, the first in Sony history, there’s every chance just as many, if not more, are dropping into combat on PS5 as well.
