It’s already cracked the Top 20 on Steam Charts for concurrent players, with more than 51,000 at its peak. It might not be as seismically popular as Viking survival game Valheim, but it’s proven to be a bonafide hit in its own right.
Alongside the news of the game’s “week one sales milestone,” developer Four Quarters said that a handful of updates are on the horizon, starting with the addition of Steam trading cards in collaboration with artist Bard-the-Zombie.
Beyond that, Four Quarters said that other “quality of life” and aesthetical updates will follow.
There have been a number of Loop Hero hotfixes released since launch, with the latest (as of this writing) 1.012 hotfix tweaking the book worm and broken geography achievements, fixing the game’s resource dupe, and updating boss summons.
We called Loop Hero “a game that’s absolutely worth the timesink” in our review, praising it for its learning curve and sense of discovery, as well as how it “cleverly mixes many different genres” into a cohesive and compelling adventure. Despite being a bit “grueling,” there’s little wonder why it’s become so popular so quickly.
Stay tuned for further updates in the coming weeks. You can pick up Loop Hero, if you haven’t already, over on Steam for $14.99.
