  • Steam peak: The game hit approximately 90,000 players online at once over the launch weekend, marking one of the largest simultaneous audiences for the series on PC.
  • Franchise milestone: This weekend’s high more than doubled the previous concurrent-player record for Nioh, resetting expectations for the series’ potential on PC.
  • Launch timing: The spike coincided with the game’s release on Friday, with the largest concentration of players occurring in the immediate post-launch period.
  • Visibility boost: Nioh 3’s performance earned it the top slot on Steam’s Trending Games list, signalling strong discovery and interest among platform users.
  • Scope of numbers: These figures reflect Steam concurrent activity; total player counts across other platforms and services could push the overall audience even higher.
