The name being mentioned in this story is Gray Zone Warfare – the game currently ranked first on Steam's best-selling chart, surpassing the emerging blockbuster called Manor Lords. Remember, this game itself has only just been released in Early Access but has quickly achieved remarkable success. But few people would expect that the story behind the rapid explosion of Gray Zone Warfare is not at all derived from the quality of this game.

For one simple reason, the success of Gray Zone Warfare has not been translated well into user reviews. It is quite surprising to know that the majority of players have negative reviews on Steam at 33%. One reason was that the game's performance was quite bad, even when they adjusted the settings to the lowest level and the game's FPS couldn't even reach 60 even with the 3080 TI. Movements are slow and difficult to combine multiple operations. But strangely, Gray Zone Warfare sold very well. And the underlying reason was also pointed out immediately afterwards.

Specifically, there are many comments below Gray Zone Warfare's page that rate this game as useful, with comments like “At least it doesn't cost $250” and “Much better than Escape from Tarkov's tricks.” . To put it simply, many people come to Gray Zone Warfare because they run away from Escape from Tarkov. Accordingly, Escape from Tarkov is facing a lot of criticism after launching a new DLC for $250, applicable to all gamers who have spent $150 to buy the Battle Pass. And this is no different from an act of “self-destruction”, when gamers admit to feeling betrayed by greed, trying to “suck blood” as much as possible from the game publisher. As a result, most players tried to switch to competing games like Gray Zone Warfare – Escape from Tarkov's response to NPH.

So, even though the quality is not high and nothing too outstanding, Gray Zone Warfare is reaping unexpected successes. Many gamers even questioned whether Gray Zone Warfare was intentionally released to coincide with the difficult times of Escape from Tarkov to “profit”. However, the game's publisher immediately denied it, saying that the release date of Gray Zone Warfare had been planned for a long time.
