According to Steamcharts, CK3 has roughly three times the active player base of Victoria 3 - 12.5k vs 4.5k players on average last month. HoI4 has like 33k, EU4 has 13k, Stellaris has 11k, but was above the others most of the last year. Now that does not directly related to game revenue, but I guess the Vic3 player base will not sustain long term development like the other games.  :(

Four people are still playing EU:Rome  :lol:

Looking at those stats I didn't realize how niche these games are. Even Anno 1800, which I would have considered a leading game in the genre, only has 2,500 active players.

Anno 1800 has only been recently sold via Steam and before that was exclusively available via Ubisoft Connect. :bleeding:
So I guess most of the Anno player base does not show on Steam Charts.

I guess Paradox games are also available via other means, so the figures above are just an indication, not absolute facts.

2.5 million copies of Anmo 1800 sold

I feel the number may be higher in actuality. The Invictus mod is still very active. They're mostly focused on a Vanilla Plus experience and fleshing out the factions on the map more.

Right, that makes more sense.

I suppose almost everyone who bought EU:Rome did it pre-Steam as well.
