The Fallout games are highly popular in the gaming world and have already attracted many fans. Fallout 76 is the latest title in the Fallout franchise, which was released in 2020.

Given the success of the series, it would have been expected that this game would gain in popularity. While there was indeed a slight increase, the player numbers of Fallout 4 have risen much more significantly.

According to Steamcharts, peak players were at 25,580 in March. Since the series was released, they have now jumped to 164,190.

Fallout 4 even became the top-selling game in Europe last week. Currently, it's ranked 7th among the top sellers on Steam, just below Fallout 76!

Additionally, Fallout 4 players have something to look forward to, as the free Next Gen Update is coming out on April 25, 2024. Also, the DLC Fallout London has already been announced, but the release date is still pending.

So, let's pass the time with the Fallout games until the already announced second season arrives.
