About the game

Steam price
Price check of November 8, 2026 on Steam Italy (euros). The lowest price is the lowest one Statcade has seen since it started tracking the game (October 17, 2026), not Steam's full price history; free-to-keep periods do not count.

How we calculate it
Every hour we record the players online on Steam. We convert each reading to Italian time (daylight saving time included), average each hour over all days and then average each 3-hour slot (00–03, 03–06, … 21–24). Hours in which the reading is anomalous for the whole catalogue are excluded. Players come from all over the world, not just Italy: the slot shows how many people are online on Steam at that Italian time.
