Peaked with only 427 players on Steam
The latest controversial medieval action-adventure title, 1348: Ex Voto, has launched on Steam; however, the game has struggled to gain any traction from the players.
Due to some controversial comments, the theme and motive behind the game by the developers, the title only peaked with 427 players on Steam. Letās check out more details in this article.
Mixed reception from the players
According to player tracking data from SteamDB, 1348: Ex Voto only peaked with 427 concurrent players on Steam. The official account also confidently bragged about having 250,000 wishlists on Steam.
At the time of writing, there are only 59 players playing right now, with 172 concurrent players for the 24-hour peak.
Definitely not good numbers for the game, which has just been released. For now, we donāt have the data for the Epic Game Store and PS5.
Criticism for gameplay & story for 1348: Ex Voto
This game has many issues, which have also been pointed out by the Steam players in their early reviews of the game.
Most of them complained about the gameās combat, storytelling and pacing. The combat feels really clunky and repetitive. This makes the encounters with the enemies frustrating.
Many players have also criticized the gameās narrative and world-building. The story fails to deliver a good experience for them.
Prior to the full launch of the game, the demo also received lukewarm reactions and even after that, it seems the developers didnāt really pay attention to the playersā feedback.

Although the game has launched with very low numbers, the weekend is still ongoing and there might be a chance that we might see an increase in numbers.
But the reception this game has received on social media is way worse and we hardly see any fans or players interested in playing this game.
