Steam’s Top Sellers for 2018 include PUBG, GTA5, Rocket League, more
After more than a decade of dominance as the most-popular digital storefront for the PC, Steam was challenged on all sides in 2018 from both established players (GOG, Origin, and the Humble Store), as well as shiny upstarts (Discord and the Epic Games Store). But Valve’s online shop still sold a lot of games this year, and they recently shared their Top Sellers of 2018 with the public. But instead of ranking the games, Steam chose to split the list up into four tiers “as measured by gross revenue this year.”
As you might have guessed, you’ll find plenty of heavy hitters among the 12 games featured in the Platinum tier. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds was slightly overshadowed this year by other “Battle Royale” shooters, but it made the cut, as did new releases like Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey and Monster Hunter: World, and perennial favorites such as Grand Theft Auto V, Dota 2, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, and Rocket League…
Steam’s Top Sellers of 2018 – Platinum Tier
- Assassin’s Creed: Odyssey
- Civilization VI
- Counter-Strike: Global Offensive
- Dota 2
- The Elder Scrolls Online
- Far Cry 5
- Grand Theft Auto V
- Monster Hunter: World

- Warframe
Steam partitioned off the next 12 games as the Gold tier, and followed that up with 16 more games in the Silver tier. The remaining 60 games were included in the Bronze tier.
There’s plenty of recognizable titles at every level, including Ark: Survival Evolved in Gold; Subnautica, Final Fantasy XV, and Shadow of the Tomb Raider all in Silver; and The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, Dark Souls Remastered, and Nier: Automata in Bronze.
All the titles from Steam’s Top Sellers of 2018 can be seen on… you guessed it… Steam.
Digital Extremes is bringing Warframe to the Switch
Yesterday, Digital Extremes announced that they’re bringing their popular online shooter, Warframe, to the Switch sometime in the not-too-distant future. The developer is partnering with Panic Button (the team behind the Switch conversions of Doom, Wolfenstein II: The New Colossus, and Rocket League) to Nintendo’s newest console.
Like many other online shooters, Warframe will be free-to-play on the Switch, but here’s a refresher course on the game in case it slipped under your radar until now…
With more than 38 million registered players worldwide, the cooperative, free-to-play hit Warframe is a third-person online action game set in an evolving sci-fi world soon to be available on Nintendo Switch. Warframe gives players the chance to master the Warframe armor as the enigmatic Tenno, a race of ancient warriors wielding blade and gun, who are awakened from centuries of cryo-sleep by the mysterious guide, Lotus, to restore order throughout the Solar System.
Warframe features more than 35 unique Warframes, hundreds of weapons and thousands of customization options, the ability to upgrade weapons armor and items using a flexible mod system, and the ability to join clans, nurture pets, and explore massive new open worlds.
Warframe’s Switch debut doesn’t have a release date as of yet, but you can view the Announcement Trailer embedded above.
