The steam charts this week are barely recognizable. Except for Playerunknown's Battlegrounds, which is in tenth place and became the Year 5 Pass for Rainbow Six: Siege the whole list shuffled wildly.
VR climbs onto the podium: The Valve Index is available again and shoots straight to the new top of Steam's sales charts. The reason for the popularity is likely to be the Half-Life: Alyx, which will be released on March 23. In our current GameStar podcast episode on VR, Petra, Micha and Dennis are discussing whether the VR soaring even after Half-Life: Alyx will continue or wane.
Borderlands 3 on Steam for the first time: As soon as Borderlands 3 is no longer Epic Exclusive, it sells well on Steam and has secured second and third place since its release on March 12th. The fact that it appears twice is due to the special editions.
