To many people's surprise, The Day Before still has a single active player on Steam, even months after the multiplayer game's servers were shut down. Being one of the most controversial games of recent times, The Day Before was slammed by fans and critics alike upon its release last year.
What started out as a promising survival title in 2021 steadily transformed into a trainwreck when The Day Before came out on December 7, 2023. The journey in between was marred by multiple delays and toxic working conditions, along with allegations of plagiarism due to similarities to Red Dead Redemption 2 and other popular games. Owing to all these negatives and a disastrous reception at launch, the survival game was delisted from Steam as developer Fntastic shut shop within four days of the game rolling out in early access. However, the recent emergence of what appears to be a dedicated player seems to be puzzling to those keeping tabs.
The Day Before developer blames 'misinformation' for the game's lackluster reception over a month after announcing it's closing down.
As spotted by a Reddit user (via SteamDB), someone is still putting hours into the defunct online game even to this day....
