[QUOTE="Admin, post: 55146, member: 1"] Battlefield 2042 currently has fewer concurrent players on Steam than Battlefield 1, 4, or 5. [URL='https://steamdb.info/app/1517290/graphs/']Per SteamDB data[/URL], Battlefield 2042 has seen a maximum of just 2,090 players online in the last 24 hours, compared to 2,195 in Battlefield 4, 7,498 in Battlefield 1, and 21,709 in Battlefield 5. Battlefield 4 arrived in 2013, and it's a marker of how troubled the latest game in the series has been that a much older version is seeing more activity. The popularity of Battlefield 2042 on Steam has gradually declined since it was released in November last year and currently sits at less than 2% of its original peak player-base of 105,397, even seeing decline through a free weekend in December. The game has had a fairly turbulent development period both before and after its launch, first realised in September [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/battlefield-2042-delayed']when its release date was pushed back a month[/URL].
