Total War: Three Kingdoms breaks franchise records

Creative Assembly's latest game in the Total War franchise impresses with its player-count and sales numbers.

Total War: Three Kingdoms released just a few days ago and already impresses with its sales numbers and record-breaking player-count. The game peaked at a whopping 162,592 concurrent players, which is more than any other Total War game and with numbers like that, it's not a surprise that the game still lingers in the Steam top-sellers category.

Now, of course, the year isn't over yet and the concurrent player record may well switch hands, but for now, Total War: Three Kingdoms is the Steam champion. Are you playing Total War: Three Kingdoms?
