Following the conclusion of Early Access for Deadzone: Rogue on the 12th, another roguelite FPS set in the crushing depths of the abyss is making waves. The title is 'Abyssus', and it has surged to 5th place on the global charts immediately upon launch.

Abyssus is a co-op roguelite FPS set in a world powered by 'Brine', a rare substance found only in the deepest ocean trenches. As an expedition member, the player is tasked with securing a massive Brine deposit, only to find themselves under attack by deep-sea horrors while venturing beneath the ruins of an ancient civilization.

Survival in these ruins relies heavily on coordination with fellow expedition members. Players can wield eight different Brine-powered weapons, customising them with various parts to suit individual playstyles. Beyond that, the ability to upgrade skills as the stage progresses, along with clearing 64 levels and procedurally generated interior maps, allows players to unlock rewards as they push deeper.

As of 2:00 PM on the 13th, the Steam user reception for Abyssus sits at 'Mostly Positive' (251 reviews, 77% positive). Players seem to enjoy the frantic blend of high-speed action and co-op gunplay. While there were initial complaints regarding multiplayer crashes, the development team earned praise for their swift response, patching the issues within a single day.

Elsewhere on the charts, Battlefield 6 has slipped to 2nd place following the end of its test phase, allowing Peak to reclaim the top spot after a content update. Meanwhile, Rust has climbed to 6th place following an overhaul of its Hardcore mode.

In the top 20 for peak concurrent players, Apex Legends has maintained a steady count of over 200,000 for a week since the start of Season 26, climbing to 4th place. Peak continues to hold momentum with 130,000 players, securing 7th, while Cyberpunk 2077 remains in 19th place with 68,513 players, still riding the wave of its 65% discount.
