Dune: Spice Wars is a real-time strategy game with 4X elements developed by Shiro Games and published by both Funcom and Shiro Games. The game is set in the groundbreaking Dune universe created by famous American sci-fi author Frank Herbert, as well as the subsequent film adaptations.
Dune: Spice Wars just launched on April 26, 2022, but it’s already making waves with a strong start. According to SteamDB data on April 28, 2022, the game had 7,498 concurrent players and hit a peak of 8,397 players within 24 hours. That’s an impressive number for a brand-new release.
Of course, when compared to Elden Ring’s concurrent player numbers and peak players, the gap is still huge. Elden Ring launched on February 24 and remains incredibly popular to this day. So it’s no surprise it has maintained a massive player base and held the top spot on Steam’s best-selling games list for a long time.
However, it seems the tides have turned as Elden Ring has been dethroned by a newcomer named Dune: Spice Wars. Sure, Elden Ring still has tons of players, but being pushed off the throne so easily by a game that just came out a few days ago is definitely surprising.
Currently, Dune: Spice Wars Early Access is available on Steam for 480,000 VND. The game has also received many positive reviews from players and holds a Very Positive rating with a total of 738 reviews as of April 28.

– Dune: Spice Wars is a real-time strategy game with 4X elements developed by Shiro Games.
