The Cycle
5 – 18 daily players
The Cycle is a Competitive Quest Shooter or PvEvP for insiders. You play as a prospector sent on Fortuna III, a living and unstable planet swarming with hostile alien wildlife. Compete or deal a fragile pact with other Prospectors to claim as many resources as possible.
The Cycle is estimated to have 5 – 18 players a day. Around 720k – 2m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
