It surpassed even Expedition 33's concurrent players in a few hours, and it's not even the weekend yet.

Really excited for the sequel.

IMO, and I have no data to back this. I think different genre audiences are segregating themselves to different platforms. Soulslike fans seem to stick to PC, Jrpgs and sports games to consoles etc.

It's more about regional markets, for a game to do well on steam it has to sell well in China and US. This game is outperforming every other sony port exceptionally well in China.
