Battlefield 5 is just one of the most popular games on Steam - is it worth 2021?

It looks like Battlefield 5 on Steam: Although Battlefield 5 already had his release in November 2018, the game has not been available for a long time on Steam. The Steam release came until June 2020, in which the officially last chapter of the shooter was published.

Due to the late period and dwindling interest in the game, the number of game numbers on Steam did not look very rosy so far. That has changed abruptly since August 2021.

Although there was a permanent uphand before, but so far, the game was far away from the most popular games on Steam. Now it has made Battlefield even in the top 10.
