Devil May Cry 5 has surged into the upper echelons of Steam's global charts. The primary catalysts? A Netflix animation and a hefty discount.

The Devil May Cry animation, produced for Netflix in 2025, dropped its second season on the 12th. Studio Mir’s adaptation garnered significant attention during its first season for its fresh take on the source material and character backstories, even cracking the global Netflix TV show Top 10. Season 2 shifts the focus to a climactic confrontation between the protagonist Dante and his brother, Vergil.

The source material—the Devil May Cry franchise itself—has also seen a massive price slash. Every entry in the series currently sports an 85% discount, bringing the price down to the 5,000 KRW range. The standout, Devil May Cry 5, has climbed the charts accordingly. It features four playable characters—Dante, Nero, the newcomer V, and the DLC-added Vergil—and maintains an 'Overwhelmingly Positive' rating on Steam for its trademark stylish action.

Elsewhere, Battlefield 6 has risen in the charts thanks to the launch of Season 3 and its associated DLC. Red Dead Redemption 2, currently 75% off, has climbed to 4th place, and Arc Raiders has made a rare appearance at 10th. Conversely, yesterday’s top performers—Outbound, Windrose, and Subnautica: Below Zero—have all slipped out of the Top 10.

In the daily peak Concurrent Players Top 20, Overwatch secured 19th place with 72,863 players. This uptick follows the start of the game's 10th-anniversary celebration on the 13th. The shift was also aided by the decline of titles like Windrose and Warframe. That said, the mood isn't entirely celebratory; players are voicing their frustrations over the discrepancy in anniversary rewards between the Chinese and global servers.
