Deadlock Update Sends Valve Shooter to 228K Steam Peak
Deadlock is back in the conversation.
That's not a small thing for a game most people can't officially play. Valve's PvP shooter is still in a very closed beta, and the usual way in is a friend with an invite. There's no release window. There isn't even a hint of wider testing. In a year packed with big launches, it would have been easy to lose track of it completely.
Then Valve shipped The City Never Sleeps, and the player count jumped.
What's in The City Never Sleeps
This isn't a balance pass with a fancy name. It's a broad update that touches almost every part of the game.
