Diablo 4 is facing a tough time on Steam, with negative reviews and a low player count. Despite being on sale, the game has failed to attract many players, with only around 2,500 active users. The situation looks grim compared to Overwatch 2, which has five times the player count. Activision-Blizzard is surely disappointed with these results.
While some reviews are clearly review bombs targeting the company, others highlight genuine issues with Diablo 4. Players complain about locked content, microtransactions, bugs, server problems, and lack of engaging post-campaign activities. It remains to be seen if the release of season two can turn things around for the game.
| Rating | Player Count | Peak Concurrent Count |
|---|---|---|
| 50.62% | 2,500 | 5,500 |
Despite the negative reviews on Steam, it’s important to consider that many Diablo 4 players may have purchased the game on Battle.net instead. However, even loyal players agree that the current situation is not ideal. Some criticize the game for being a cash grab, while others point out specific issues with the game’s mechanics and content.
Diablo 4’s fate on Steam remains uncertain. If the game fails to improve, it may end up with a lower rating than Overwatch 2, making it Activision-Blizzard’s lowest-rated game on the platform. Perhaps the company should focus on its Battle.net platform instead.
