Wardogs achieves 2.2 million sales ahead of Season 2 launch

Bulkhead’s multiplayer shooter, Wardogs, has emerged as a major commercial success on Steam, with sales estimates reaching approximately 2.2 million copies shortly after its early access launch. The game has seen significant player engagement, peaking at over 420,000 concurrent users.

Developer Bulkhead has announced that Season 2 is scheduled to launch on October 15. This major update will introduce a dynamic weather system, including heavy rainfall, which is expected to impact gameplay through changes in visibility and environmental conditions.

To maintain competitive balance and the in-game economy, Season 2 will also implement a progress wipe, resetting player ranks and unlocked content. While intended to prevent long-term players from dominating the ecosystem, the decision has met with some criticism from the community due to the short duration since the initial release.

Regarding future platforms, Bulkhead CEO Joe Brammer indicated that a console version is being targeted for 2028, citing a desire to avoid developer crunch.
