A inXile entertainment anunciou que Wasteland 3 alcançou a marca de 1 milhão de jogadores.
Para celebrar a conquista, um curta produzido há alguns anos para ajudá-los a pegar a ideia de uma Colorado pós-apocalipse foi compartilhado no Twitter. Veja logo abaixo.
We’re excited to announce that Wasteland 3 has reached 1 million players!
As a thank you, we’re releasing a short film we shot a few years ago as a mood piece to help us set the look and feel of what a post-apocalyptic Colorado could be like. We hope you enjoy it. pic.twitter.com/ICsWAVdMiu

Vale notar, porém, algumas coisas estranhas nesse número. Segundo análise do Gamstat, cerca de 200 mil desse número são de consoles que fizeram o pré-load desde novembro de 2019 – meses antes do jogo sair.
The game wasn't playable, yet somehow those who downloaded it were still counted as "players".
Around 200,000 people have "played" Wasteland 3 on Xbox long before it was released. Most of them haven't actually launched the game when it became playable.

Outra coisa menos estranha e previsível, é que a maior parte dos prováveis 1 milhão são de jogadores do Xbox Game Pass.
Também de acordo com o Gamstat, apenas 50 mil são no PS4 e 150 mil no PC via Steam.
Third official player count in a row. I genuinely love this trend.
Estimates:
Steam: 150K [PlayTracker/SteamSpy]
PS4: 50K
Xbox Live (Xbox One + PC): 900KTotal: 1.1M. Looks okay. https://t.co/1yIoNr2X3P
