🚨Palworld just achieved what Pokémon has not managed in years
855,525 concurrent players on Steam this Sunday
Second most played game on the entire platform behind only Counter-Strike 2
Pokémon has been the biggest gaming franchise in the world for 30 years
And a small indie studio from Japan just outpaced it with a survival game about creatures with guns
What do you think Pokémon needs to do to compete with this?
Valve is getting praise after helping a first-time indie developer instead of rejecting their game at the last minute.
The developer accidentally uploaded a broken build that wouldn’t launch just before the Steam Next Fest deadline.
Instead of rejecting it, a Steam reviewer found the problem, fixed the game’s configuration, and approved the build in time for the event.
Other indie developers also shared that Valve has done the same for their games

Playground Games has confirmed that Fable’s 1,000+ NPCs are voiced by real actors, not AI text-to-speech.
According to the studio, around 100 actors were cast to bring the game’s “Living Population” to life, with every NPC fully voiced.
Developers said they recorded “tons and tons of dialogue” and said that all voices in the game come from human performances.
The game features more than 150,000 lines of dialogue and over 1,000 handcrafted NPCs, with multiple recording studios working in parallel for more than 1,000 hours this year alone.
