It will be fascinating to watch whether Factorio’s sales milestones and popularity on Steam are impacted in any way by the price rise. Word of mouth and the game’s many favourable reviews will almost certainly guarantee that Factorio retains interest despite the price rise. Factorio is also expanding in a manner that should keep fans interested.
Price rises in gaming are nothing new, albeit it is unusual for a game that has already been launched to have its price abruptly increased. Most gaming price hikes occur with new releases, such as when the industry began shifting to $70 for next-gen games. However, there have been occasions in the past when game prices have risen, and this may occasionally affect gaming gear as well.
