Slay the Spire sets new Steam player record nearly seven years after release

Slay the Spire achieved a new peak Steam player record of over 54,000 concurrent users on December 24, 2025, nearly seven years after its release. This surge in popularity is likely driven by a 90% discount on Steam, making the game available for 99 rubles in Russia until January 5, 2026. Slay the Spire is a deck-building roguelike with a sequel planned for March 2026, currently ranking fifth on Steam's most wishlisted games.
