CHARTS: Arc Raiders spends second week at No.1 on Steam

Extraction shooter Arc Raiders was once again the highest-grossing title on Steam last week.

The title debuted on October 30th and was the biggest seller on the platform last week. Arc Raiders has shifted more than four million copies to date and has, in part, caused publisher Nexon to increase its profit forecasts.  

PUBG: Battlegrounds is up 18 places to second week-on-week in the wake of a store update and a collaboration with car brand Porsche. Counter-Strike 2, meanwhile, once again has to settle for third place, coming in ahead of Battlefield 6, which dropped two spots to fourth. 

Grand strategy title Europa Universalis 5 has debuted in fifth place following its November 4th release, while superhero management sim Dispatch fell two spots to sixth. 

Valve's Steam Deck hardware dropped two places to No.7 as Apex Legends returns to the Top Ten in eighth following the release of the latest season of content. A 40 per cent discount helps Kingdom Come Deliverance 2 return to the Top 100 highest grossing games on Steam in ninth place, while Football Manager 26 debuted in tenth place following its November 4th launch. 

Here is the Steam Top Ten for the week ending November 11th: 

1. Arc Raiders, Embark Studios
2. PUBG: Battlegrounds, Krafton 
3. Counter-Strike 2, Valve
4. Battlefield 6, EA
