More games came out on Steam in 2026 already than in the whole 2025. And we still have 2,5 months left. 21,388 so far, around 66 new games every day. Kotaku wrote about it yesterday https://kotaku.com/steam-valve-slop-ai-genai-vibe-coding-pc-game-releases-2000746749
Of course AI is big part of this.
For someone launching a game in 2027 this is a bit scary to read :) Making a game gets easier every month. Getting someone to notice it, that is the hard part now.
So what wins? I think same thing that always won. Something people actually want to play.
