The original title: A summary of new games that sold millions on Steam in 2016
There are still 3 days to end in 2016. Recently, foreign media checked through SteamSpy what are the games that sold 1 million in 2016. Before announcing the game, let’s say that this investigation does not count free games and remastered games that provide free upgrades. In addition, games that landed on Steam Early Access in 2014 or 2015 and were officially released this year will not be included.

But in terms of sales, it seems that "H1Z1: Killing King" is the best-selling new game on Steam in 2016. The Steam version sold more than 3 million sets, and the game first landed on Steam on February 17. The second place is the indie game "Stardew Valley Story". The game landed on Steam in February, and as of now, it has sold almost 2 million sets (1.89 million).
In third place is the multiplayer (4v1) horror game "Dead by Dawn", which sold around 1.45 million. Judging from Tieba and live broadcasts, this game seems to be relatively popular in China. As for 3A games, the games on the list include "Doom 4" (1.45 million), "Civilization 6" (1.43 million), "Dark Souls 3" (1.23 million), "Tomb Raider: Rise" (1.23 million), "The Division Lockdown" (1.02 million), "UFO 2" (1.08 million) and "Warhammer: Total War" (1.03 million).

Most of the games on the list were released in the first half of 2016 (except for Civilization 6, which was released in October), and the masterpieces released in October and November were not on the list. Watchdog 2 is only a month away from now, and it must be difficult to sell millions, but according to SteamSpy statistics, the current sales are around 190,000. For 3A games, I don’t know if Ubisoft can accept it?
In addition, the "Dishonored 2" released on November 11 currently sells about 320,000 Steam, while the "Call of Duty 13" released on November 3 sells about 260,000 Steam.
