New free RPG is currently bigger than Steam’s most popular games

Capitalising on the hype of theOne PieceNetflix show and the growing popularity of anime, there’s aRobloxgame with more players than some of the best titles on Steam.Blox Fruitsis currently dominating and bringing in thousands of players.

Robloxhas recently launched on PlayStation 5.

Blox Fruitsdoes feel very much like a fan madeOne Piecegame; you’ll find devil fruits that bestow powers upon your character and the story touches on popular plot points from the show. Of course, all of this is supposed to be a ‘loose’ inspiration because it’s a copyright minefield. This doesn’t stop hundreds of thousands of players logging in.

Robloxfeatures over 40 million games and experiences with many of the popular games featuring anime leanings.Blox Fruitscurrently has around 1.25 million users, whileCounter-Strike 2has approximately 1.2 million users. A lot of this comes from the recentBlox Fruitsupdate for Halloween and the fact that it features pretty prominently on theRobloxhome page more often than not.

While many people tend to believe thatRobloxonly caters to children, a lot of adult gamers, particularly those who consider themselves as casual, can be found playing many of the games.Blox Fruitsis one of the deeper experiences on the platform offering gameplay similar to a fully fledged console release which pulls in a lot of people due to its accessibility.
