In the crowded realm of Steam survival games, a new contender has emerged victorious – Soulmask, an ambitious title that has captivated players and critics alike, soaring to the top of the global bestseller charts on its launch day. Developed by CampFire Studio and Qooland Games, Soulmask has not only achieved impressive sales figures but has also garnered overwhelmingly positive user reviews, a remarkable feat for a newly released game.
Boasting an expansive map that dwarfs even the likes of Ark: Survival Evolved, Soulmask promises an unprecedented level of depth and replayability. With the potential for playthroughs lasting up to a staggering 500 hours for true completionists, the game offers a vast and immersive world to explore. One of its standout features is the ability to possess and control town NPCs, harnessing their unique skills and further enhancing their abilities through a suite of powerful masks.
In the wake of this resounding success, the development team at CampFire Studio and Qooland Games have expressed their gratitude and humility, taking a moment to reflect on the game’s incredible reception. “For everyone at Soulmask, the hours since the EA launch have been the most exciting moments,” the team shared in a blog post. “In just four hours after launch, we reached the top two on the global bestseller list, and after eight hours, we climbed to the top position for paid games worldwide.”
While the sales figures are undoubtedly impressive, the team finds even greater satisfaction in the positive user reviews on Steam. “Even more important than these achievements is our current Steam rating of ‘very positive,'” they continued. “This shows that our game has been well-received by every one of you. Is there any more exciting news than that? We are immensely grateful to every chieftain who has encouraged us, allowing us to continue improving Soulmask.”
The developers have also demonstrated a commitment to continuous improvement, actively seeking constructive feedback from players and opening a dedicated Discord server to address any issues promptly. “Your support and feedback truly make us realize that we are not good enough yet,” the team humbly acknowledged.
With its captivating gameplay, immersive world, and the developers’ dedication to refining the experience, Soulmask has solidified its place as a standout title in the survival genre. As the game continues to garner acclaim and attract new players, the future looks bright for this remarkable achievement in gaming.
