Apex Legends overtakes Baldur’s Gate 3 on Steam thanks to Final Fantasy 7 crossover

Apex Legends‘ first crossover with another franchise appears to be a successful one as the game is currently sitting at the top of the Steam best sellers, knocking Baldur’s Gate 3 down to second place.

Admittedly, the Steam Deck is technically still the top seller according to Steam’s charts, but if you’re only taking into account actual video games and not hardware, Apex Legends holds the crown, outperforming other popular multiplayer titles like Lethal Company and Counter-Strike 2. Given the timing, it has to be thanks to the Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth collaboration, which went live on Jan. 9 and added a new mode as well as cosmetics based on Square Enix’s RPG.
