Original Kingdom Rush outsells its new sequel, breaking concurrent player records

Original: 15年続くタワーディフェンス『Kingdom Rush』シリーズ、新作が出たのになぜか初代のほうが大盛り上がり。“同接2万弱”で過去最高値を大幅更新 https:// fed.brid.gy/r/https://automato n-med

The 15-year-old tower defense series Kingdom Rush released a new entry, yet the original game is the one surging in popularity. The first title reportedly reached nearly 20,000 concurrent players, far surpassing its previous all-time high, even as the new release arrives. Players appear to be flocking back to the classic rather than the sequel.

Why now: A long-running series' original game dramatically beating its brand-new sequel in player numbers is an unusual and shareable reversal.
