The year 2022 has just ended, Steam, the essential platform for PC games, share today various information, including the “best games of the year, in gross turnover”. We thus discover that a large number of titles are included despite their presence in the PC Game Pass, but also that once again, many productions stamped Xbox appear there.
27 games from the PC Game Pass are invited to the ranking
Unfortunately, this ranking does not allow you to see the sales figures, or even the exact positioning in the top 99. Indeed, they are divided into 4 categories: Platinum (12 games), Gold (12 games), Silver (25 games) and Bronze (50 games).
On the Xbox side, we see the presence of Forza Horizon 4, Forza Horizon 5, Sea of Thieves, Grounded, Halo Infinite, Microsoft Flight Simulator, Age of Empires IV, The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, The Elder Scrolls Online and Fallout 76. With hindsight, we can easily say that the brand has done well to tackle the PC market through the Steam box.
