Battlefield 6 is already topping Steam’s top-seller chart, but let’s not forget about what went down with 2042

Battlefield 6 is topping Steam's top-seller chart, surpassing even free-to-play titles such as Valve's own Counter-Strike 2. It's undeniable that DICE's shooter looks promising, especially compared to previous games in the series, but let's not pretend like BF2042 never happened.

As EA slowly but surely wraps up development on Battlefield 6, which is slated to release on Oct. 10 this year, players have been going hand over fist to pre-order it. It thus earned the title a top spot on Steam's top-sellers list, above free-to-play titles, even, which you'd expect are getting the most players to click on and download them. It's unsurprising, honestly, given how promising BF6 looks, what with all the awesome Michael Bay-style trailers and chaotic multiplayer.
