Escape From Tarkov parody Escape From Duckov is proving to be as much of a sensation as the original game with a massive Steam player count, beating out Battlefield 6.

Escape From Duckov answers the question that gamers have been asking for decades, what if someone made an extraction shooter where you play as ducks. The indie PVE shooter features a ton of genre staples, being a hardcore survival experience, except everyone is a duck. And since the game launched earlier this month, it's become a big hit, with 1 million copies being sold within its first week. The PVE shooter is making a big impact, becoming a major contender on the Steam charts, with this past weekend being its biggest yet.
