Many people might have thought that the survival game train would be slowing with introduction of Valheim but it seems another has entered the fray and proved to be extremely popular on Steam.
V Rising on paper did sound like a box ticking exercise with it being an early access, open world survival game with base-building and crafting, plus PvP and PvE as well as co-op and solo play. However a huge 500,000 players had purchased the game after a mere 3 days and it has just peaked at 150,645 concurrent players in the last 24 hours and its sitting at an impressive 87% Very Positive rating on Steam.
