Today, Biochemical Crisis 9: The Spirit officially landed in Steam, making the series the best performance on the Steam platform with a super-high human spirit. The number of online players was 26,759. In view of the excellent ratings given by the major media and players, this would have been a double-marketing.
According to the Steam Data Tracking website, Biochemical Crisis 9: The Spirit has a rating of over 93 per cent in nearly 20,000 player evaluations on Steam. The number of online players peaking at 320056 after less than a day of distribution marks the best in the series on Steam, and presents a rather positive picture of the overall sales of the game.
By contrast, while widely appreciated, the release of Biochemical Crisis 4: Reproduction in 2023 peaked at 168,191 online players, the best performance in the series prior to Biochemical Crisis 9. The peak of Biochemical Crisis 8: Villages was 106631 in 2021, and it is worth mentioning that online players in Biochemical Crisis 7 peaked at only 20449, which is a very low figure given that it is one of the best in the series.
Indeed, the positive response of the player premonitioned the success of this work prior to the sale of Biochemical Crisis 9: The Spirit. Only a few weeks after the first open game in June 2025, when Karp was empty, the number of Steam’s wishes alone exceeded millions. And with Lyon joining as another leading actor, the number of wish sheets rose again in December, becoming the third-highest game for Steam’s wishes, second only to Deep Sea Lost 2 and Extreme Race: Horizon 6. The above figures are just the results of the single platform of Steam, with Biochemical Crisis 9: The Spirit landing at PC through the Epic store, and even more players on the Switch 2, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S mainframe platforms in Nintendo.
Biochemical Crisis 9: The Spirit is the latest in this classic series of horror games, set against the background of the raccoon city that was destroyed by a nuclear explosion after the outbreak of the virus. Players will share the frightful fears with FBI analyst Grace, and with senior agent Leone, the pleasure of winning death. The game experience of the two roles, as well as the scenes surrounding the interlocking of the two, will strike the soul of the player.
