Prices
Each in the currency that store quoted — not converted: the gap between two rows is the publisher's pricing, not an exchange rate.
Every market we collect.
Charts
Each storefront's own chart, in its own country — the closest public signal to sales where none is published. A country missing from a list is one we don't collect there, not one where the game doesn't chart.
No United States chart position — it charts only in the markets below.
Discounts
Every price cut of more than 20% we have observed, in each market that quoted one, with this game's chart position on either side of it. These are episodes, not a model: a sale is one event, and one event cannot tell you what the next one will do.

Latest in each market: best UK #65, worst BR #98 · 10 markets collected
Of the 7 markets with a position on both sides, 3 climbed and 4 fell. The same sale, the same day, opposite directions — which is why nothing here is averaged into a single arrow, and why one sale is not a trend.
Reviews, worldwide (the counter carries no country): 11/day in the week to Sep 14 → 22/day in the week after.
For scale, across Steam · Top Sellers · Brazil over the last 30 days: the 24 chart moves that followed a price cut of more than 20% went a median of 9 places towards #1, and the 2,404 moves with no price cut behind them went 2 away. One store, one chart, one country — it is the only place we have enough observations to say even that.
Prices outside the United States have been collected since 6 August 2026 and chart positions since 19 July 2026, so a cut older than that has no market to compare and a market that joined later has no history yet. Nothing here is converted between currencies.

yummers
ровно за 6 часов шикарная особенно концовка та и музыка бомба советую
нельзя рисовать писюны в лифте, не реалистично, удаляйте игру
No tiene sentido que exista algo así. 6 años despues, HL: Alyx sigue siendo una locura que no se puede describir del todo a alguien que nunca probó VR. Más inmersivo que esto no hay.
this game makes u feel like badass even when ur chud
