Immediately, however, the game failed to reach the demo's lofty heights, peaking at 132,816 players on launch day, and things only went downhill from there. It clocked up 5,🥀000 negative reviews in its first week, and now, it looks like it's losing players faster than almost every other major live-service title released in the last couple of years, with over 65 percent of players aba🍸ndoning their mechs for scrap.

According to , in just two weeks, Mecha Break has lost 66 percent of its average player count on Steam. On July 2, the game had an average of 51,552 players. The day after, it averaged 65,291 play🐓ers. Yesterday, it averaged just 24,431 players, a 65 percent drop in less than two weeks.

The game's peak concurrent player count paints an even more dire situa🌟tion, dropping from 132,816 at launch to 37,218 on July 15, a 72 percent decrease.

Using 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:data from a report we ran earlier this year, we ca🧜n see that Mecha Break is dropping players at a faster rate than many of its competitors:

	Launch/Peak Week Average Player Count	Average After Six Weeks	Percentage Drop
Marvel Rivals	331,225	320,892	3
Delta Force	75,366	66,580	12
Helldivers 2	264,109	173,490	34
Once Human	153,381	94,564	38
Path Of Exile 2	352,292	216,426	39
Overwatch 2	38,239	17,859	53
Diablo 4	15,822	7,372	53
Throne and Liberty	201,795	78,244	61
Mecha Break	51,552	24,431 (Two Weeks)	66
The Finals	151,665	48,370	68
The First Descendant	172,742	48,090	72
Diablo 4: Vessel of Hatred	32,894	8,550	74
Palworld	1,293,423	164,818	87

During its first six weeks, 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Marvel Rivals only lost three percent of its players. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Delta Force only lost 12 percent over that same period, and 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Helldivers 2 only 34 percent. 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:Overwatch 2, a game which was 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:almost universally panned, lost 53 percent over six weeks. Mecha Break has loဣst 6🍌6 percent within just two weeks.

It's a troubling set of numbers for the shooter, which now sits firmly with "" reviews on Steam, and they paint a picture as to why the game is struggling. Even pre-launch, Mecha Break faced com📖plai💞nts about its egregious microtransactions, and post-launch, the game ha🔴s done nothing to assuage those concerns. Many reviews cite the microtransactions as a big issue, alongside balancing pro🗹blems and a lack of customization and mechs.

It's early days, and Amazing Seasun Games has a solid foundation, but it needs to make changes quickly to avoid alienating its fan base and to ensure the game has 168澳洲幸运5开奖网:the longevity it deserves.
