The Redfall comeback might have started, as Steam stats suddenly spike
It's been a tough old year for Redfall. Arriving at the start of May, the vampire shooter from Dishonored developer Arkane had plenty of pedigree behind it, but also some stiff competition. Diablo 4 would follow just a month later, and likely, people were holding out for the new Blizzard RPG as their game of the summer. Likewise, Skyrim, Fallout, and Elder Scrolls studio Bethesda - which published Redfall - had a little game in the works called Starfield, potentially making Redfall feel like a less-compelling side project. Couple that with some unenthusiastic reviews and reports about technical and gameplay problems, and Arkane's vampire FPS quickly came and went, despite a launch on Game Pass. However, based on recent Steam statistics and a few other factors, it seems Redfall could be due a minor comeback. It might not be on the same scale as Cyberpunk 2077, but Arkane's game appears to be on the up.
