Slime Rancher 2 has been on the radar for many people since it was unveiled last year, and it’s no surprise to see that that’s translated in solid sales for the game right off the bat. It recently launched in early access, and in less than six hours after release, had already sold over 100,000 copies. As you’d expect, it’s crossed another sales milestone.
Taking recently to Twitter, game director and Monomi Park co-founder and CEO Nick Popovich revealed that Slime Rancher 2 has now sold over 300,000 copies across all platforms since launch. The first person sandbox life sim title currently also holds a 95% positive user rating on Steam, based on over 6,000 user reviews.
Interestingly, Popovich also points out that Slime Rancher 2 – which has clearly seen instant commercial and critical success – was developed with “zero” crunch, with Monomi Park also “offering top tier benefits and unlimited PTO” to employees- which is yet another encouraging sign of the industry’s changing workplace practices.
Slime Rancher 2 is available in early access on Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and PC. It is also available via Game Pass.
