Since becoming the best game of 2022, Elden Ring has quickly shown its “ups and downs”. Facing the appearance of a series of new blockbusters, combined with the lack of supporting content, Elden Ring gradually dropped in the race in terms of player count. And although there are still many loyal gamers who continue to stick around, the peak number of 953,426 players at the same time – the time when Elden Ring just launched will probably be difficult to recreate in the future.
But everything has changed dramatically since the Shadow of the Erdtree expansion update was released. Despite countless negative reviews pouring in after a period of experience because the difficulty is too high, Shadow of the Erdtree still helps Elden Ring restore its original position. It wouldn't even be an exaggeration to say that Shadow of the Erdtree contributed to “crashing” Steam thanks to its own effects. Just over an hour after its release, this expansion DLC contributed to helping Elden Ring have more than 550,000 people logging in and playing at the same time. But this is definitely not the most impressive number.
The reason for saying this is because there is still a large number of Elden Ring gamers who have not been able to fully complete the conditions to experience Shadow of the Erdtree without defeating the challenging boss named Mohg. According to data on Steam, the number of Elden Ring players who surpass Mohg is still only about 40%. This means that there are still approximately 60% of Elden Ring gamers who have not had the opportunity to experience Shadow of the Erdtree. So it is very likely that over time, this blockbuster's milestone of nearly 1 million concurrent players will easily be broken.
Currently, the number of players looking to overcome Mohg is continuously increasing. So, perhaps sooner or later, Elden Ring will surpass the milestone of 1 million concurrent players in the future.
