It turned out that not only the Netflix series of the same name, but also common memes can rise online in the old game. This year unexpectedly became one of the most popular games Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance, which is almost ten years old.
This was told by the PlayTracker service, which tracks game stats from various platforms. It was found that this month the number of concurrent players increased by 1000% compared to April 2021. Also, the frequency of unlocking achievements has increased noticeably, indicating an influx of new players who have never launched a title.
The data can be partially verified via SteamDB. Indeed, since January 2022, the game began to dramatically gain an audience.
Such rapid fan growth was clearly influenced by memes featuring Jet Sam, Armstrong and other characters. If you go to YouTube, by searching for Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance memes you can find several relatively new videos with a selection of funny images.
Remember that now in development may be a remake of the original Metal Gear Solid
