Online Slay the Spire 2 on Steam has surpassed 430 thousand peak players: the game even surpassed Resident Evil Requiem

Slay the Spire 2 Online on Steam Peaks Above 430k Players; Even Outsold Resident Evil Requiem

The follow-up to the cult card-roguelike Slay the Spire launched on Steam and immediately pulled in a peak concurrent audience of approx. 430,000 players (c.430k). It sold better at launch than Resident Evil Requiem and, in raw terms, more than tripled the genre mark Mewgenics set just a month earlier. Steam’s reviews currently read 97% positive — a striking headline figure, e.g., but not the whole picture.

Narratively, the action skips ahead about a thousand years from the original’s finale: the Spire awakens once more. Its corridors now host new monsters and traps; familiar systems are reworked, the atmosphere leans darker, and reactions have been messy — part praise, part grumbling.
