median 27 followers (10,949 with a count); their total followers +4% in 30 days, over 551 games read at both ends (the largest weigh most)

Top contributor to the growth: Assassin's Creed Black Flag Resynced, 27,608 reviews in Jul–Sep 2026 against 0 a year earlier — 59% of the tag's increase.

We compare the last 3 complete months with the same 3 months a year earlier, which takes out the season. Reviews are counted on the tag’s paid games only (free-to-play games have no monthly review history with us), so releases are counted the same way: paid releases. A tag needs at least 30 paid releases and 1,000 reviews in both periods, and no more than 50% of its releases in the two years free to play; otherwise it is “too few”. Rising: review volume up 20% or more, by at least as much as paid releases, and no more than 50% of that growth from a single game. Cooling: review volume down 20% or more. Anything else: Steady.

Reviews written are summed over 10,115 paid Action-Adventure games whose review history we re-read on or after Oct 1, 2026, so their last complete month is whole; 7 more, last read before that, are left out of every month alike (we re-read a game about once a week).

Our follower history starts Jul 13, 2026, so the 30-day change has nothing older to compare with. A game carries many tags and counts in each. Correlation only: a trend describes the past, it does not forecast.

Reviews written

Steam reviews posted each month on Action-Adventure's paid games of any age — the demand side. Free-to-play games have no monthly review history with us, so they are not counted.

Median revenue of the month's releases, 3 months in

Modeled: each paid release's estimated revenue at the last month boundary on or before 3 months after it first sold (2–3 months of sales), median per month, over the month's paid releases. Releases with no review yet have no history and are left out, so this is the median of reviewed launches and runs above a typical launch; each month shows its n of the paid releases. Through Jun 2026; younger months are not 3 months old yet.
