WARDOGS reached 100,000 Steam wishlists just three days after its reveal, passed 500,000 in May and hit one million wishlists in August. Now, as the game enters Early Access today, one million wishlists have become more than one million copies sold.<\/p>\n
\u201cTo cross a million copies sold as we launch into early access is mental,\u201d said Joe Brammer, CEO at BULKHEAD. \u201cWe’ve spent the last few months showing people exactly what WARDOGS is, what it isn’t, and at one point literally gave everyone ten reasons not to buy it. We didn’t want people buying into blind hype. So seeing more than one million people choose to jump in and play the game at early access launch means a huge amount to all of us.<\/p>\n
But this is still early access. We’ve got things to fix, things we want to improve and a lot more we want to build. The best thing players can do now is keep playing, keep telling us what they think and keep giving us those ridiculous WARDOGS moments.\u201d<\/p>\n
Player feedback has shaped WARDOGS throughout its road to Early Access. Nearly half a million players joined the August Closed Beta, while the final pre-launch test peaked at 245,118 concurrent players on Steam.<\/p>\n
The tests helped BULKHEAD improve performance and stability, while thousands of community clips, streams and videos gave players an unfiltered look at the game ahead of launch.<\/p>\n
To celebrate the community, BULKHEAD is running the #WARDOGS100K Clip Contest, looking for the best plays, biggest fails and most chaotic moments from the game.<\/p>\n
The best overall clip will win $100,000 in cash, with the rest of the Top 100 each receiving $100,000 in WARDOGS in-game cash.
