168澳洲幸运5开奖网:FBC: Firebreak, the multiplayer Control spin-off, has been a disaster for Remedy Entertainment. Despite hitting over one million playe🍌rs in its first month, boosted by Xb꧋ox Game Pass and PS Plus, it's struggling to keep most of themꦛ.

As of writing, it only has on Steam, dropping into the double digits after just three weeks. For comparison, it took PlayStation's infamous hero shooter Concord one week and five days to reach sub-100 numbers—it's hardly a flattering comparison, b♈ut already players on the Steam Forums are꧟ .

FBC isn't doing too badly in the review department, wไith an average 'Mixed' score on Steam.

With its numbers tanking, it's hardly surprising that FBC is now ranked 2,097 on the Steam top-sellers list, but what is surprising is that the unreleased spiritual successor to 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Garry's Mod, S&Box, has more players right now. Through the developer preview alone, the Source 2 "game engine🗹 and platform" has an all-time peak of 992 players, and a 24-hour peak of 141, maintaining a triple-digit figure when even FBC is struꦑggling to.

FBC Is Now Barely In Steam's Top 3,500 Games

We reported not long ago that 168澳洲幸✅运5开奖网:FBC had ♈fallen out of Steam's top 1,800 games, but things have only worsened in the weeks since. After plummeting further, it's now ranked 3,462 in the charts, placing it behind the likes of Nunholy, Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes, and a game called 'Loot Box' with 'Mostly Negative' reviews w🥃here you click a loot box that doesn't even open.

Granted, Remedy is aware of how FBC is performing, admitting in its celebratory tweet of one million pla🧸yers that "there is still a lot of work" to do. But it's unclear just how many of those one million players are still active today, as the Steam Forums paint a pretty bleak picture.

Players have posted threads asking if solo is viable, writing that they can't find a game even with cross-platform enabled, while others have simply declared that FBC is💞 "officially dead". Some had hoped to see a "decent discount" in the Summer Sale as a last-ditch effort to boost the player count, but that didn't happen. It'll take some work to claw back its dwindling community, especially when🔯 the few stragglers left are unable to reliably find a game.
