Lethal Company seemingly came out of nowhere, taking the PC gaming world by storm. For an indie co-op horror game developed by a single person, I can firmly state that we have a cult classic after just a month of its existence, and all while it’s still in Early Access! But how did Lethal Company become so popular, and where did this meteoric rise come from?
What Lethal Company Accomplished in its First Month of Early Access
The chart below may make your head spin, but here we are. Lethal Company has set the concurrent players record (184,015 players) on Monday, November 27, 2023. Casual players love it. Roleplayers love it. Streamers love it. Hardcore horror players love it. Even video game content consumers (some of whom won’t touch the game because they are too scared to play it) love watching funny highlights of Lethal Company online.
