Escape from Duckov, a new PvE top-down shooter that is something of a parody of Escape from Tarkov, is doing quite well on Steam. The duck-themed game launched on October 16 and quickly shot up the Steam charts, going on to sell more than 500,000 copies.
It is the No. 4 best-selling game right now globally on Steam and No. 6 overall for peak concurrent players today, October 20. It has reached more than 180,000 concurrent players.
Developer Team Soda said in a Steam post that it was an “exciting weekend for all ducks,” adding that the entire studio is “quacking with joy and flapping our wings in excitement.”
This sounds like a fun and creative twist on the original! The concept of combining a serious game with a lighthearted theme like ducks is intriguing. It’s great to see unique ideas gaining traction on platforms like Steam. Looking forward to hearing more about its success!
