Borderlands 3 player count tops 90,000 on Steam
Borderlands 3 peaked at 93,820 players on Sunday, March 15, as SteamDB shows. That puts it firmly in the territory of Steam’s most popular games, and it’s still hovering at the number 13 spot as of this story – clearly, a substantial number of people were waiting for the Steam version, and the substantial 50% discount that accompanied this release probably helped.
At the original launch back on the Epic Store, Gearbox chief Randy Pitchford said that the Borderlands 3 PC player count had doubled that of Borderlands 2 – which would put the new game at a peak of nearly 250,000, far beyond even the impressive numbers that the Steam release is posting now.
The two PC releases of Borderlands 3 offer cross-play with each other, so it doesn’t matter which version you’re digging into now – though the number comparisons do give us some insight into just how big the number of Steam holdouts truly is.

Never could get into borderlands. I tried playing the 2nd one awhile ago and got some modded weapons or whatever it is and it was sorta fun even though I had no clue what I was doing. Nice to see this game is doing well.

Pawzy Still haven't played this yet. I loved the first 2 but after hearing some of my friends talk about 3 it seemed like it wasn't that great and got boring quick.
The gameplay is like Borderlands 2, the story is meh at best. (Completed the base game on Normal mode with Moxxi's Casino DLC.) There's multiple key elements that doesn't make a lick of sense, even for a BL game. I've been tweaking my items slowly since completing it.

Epic can only boast about the numbers because of the people who didn't want to wait. If it had released on both at first launch, I'd be willing to best Steam would have majority sales.
Glad it's on Steam now, but I'm upset that we missed out on exclusive events, skins, weapons, etc. We need to end the exclusive war.
