As the title says.
343 did a good move by adding the free play days. Also, Warzone Firefight was the biggest update. Hopefully, H5 can maintain this and grow even further. Isn’t this the highest position Halo 5 has been on these charts since release?
Making a game free will certainly help with that. Can’t imagine it’ll stay in that spot, but I’m sure it’ll be better off than it was previously. It is quite the bump as it was at about the 13th or 14th spot a couple weeks ago.
Halo 5 was resting at about 7 or 8 for the first couple months though IIRC. It was definitely in the top ten for that long before dropping off it.
I saw that too and thought it was pretty cool. Also saw Destiny wasn’t in the top 10 which seemed surprising to me.
There is a thread designated for discussing population count/player numbers already.
Even if it’s because of the game being made free for a bit, it’s nice to see a bunch of people showing an interest in Halo.
