70TB！遠(yuǎn)超《賽博朋克2077》,《黑色神話:悟空》的預(yù)載量帶寬峰值打破Steam歷史記錄
《賽博朋克2077》帶寬峰值為每秒51TB


There are clearly a lot of people excited about Black Myth: Wukong, as it has managed to beat Cyberpunk 2077's peak download bandwidth usage on Steam ahead of its release tomorrow.
While bandwidth usage might not be the stat that we often look at on Steam, with many often focusing more on concurrent player counts to judge a game's popularity, before and during a game's launch the site's bandwidth is a solid indicator of how many people are rushing to download things. We saw this back in 2020 with the launch of Cyberpunk 2077 – as flagged in this Reddit post at the time, the site's download bandwidth spiked to 51TB per second on December 12, the Saturday following the game's launch.

顯然，很多人對《黑色神話:悟空》感到興奮，因?yàn)樵撚螒蛟赟team上的預(yù)載瞬時(shí)帶寬占用率在明日（20日）正式發(fā)行前就已經(jīng)超過《賽博朋克2077》最大峰值。
雖然玩家不常觀看Steam帶寬負(fù)載情況，因?yàn)橥ǔ碚f大多人更關(guān)心的是玩家數(shù)量，以此來判斷某款游戲受歡迎程度，但在游戲發(fā)布之前和期間，網(wǎng)站帶寬占用是一個(gè)可靠的指標(biāo)，可表明有多少人急于下載游戲。我們在2020年的《賽博朋克2077》發(fā)布時(shí)就發(fā)現(xiàn)了這一點(diǎn)，正如當(dāng)時(shí)Reddit帖子中所展示的那樣，該網(wǎng)站下載帶寬占用在（2020年）12月12日(也就是游戲發(fā)布后的周六)飆升至每秒51TB。

Well, we're now seeing a similar spike with Black Myth: Wukong and this one is even bigger than Cyberpunk 2077's. Preloads for Game Science's new action RPG went live yesterday, and Steam's download bandwidth usage promptly spiked to 70TB per second, which is enormous. The majority of this usage was from Asia, which alone accounted for 59.3TB per second at the peak, followed by North America at 7.8TB, and Europe closely behind at 7.6TB.

好吧，我們現(xiàn)在在《黑色神話:悟空》中看到了類似情況，這款游戲容量甚至比《賽博朋克2077》還要大。游戲科學(xué)最新動(dòng)作RPG游戲昨天放開了預(yù)載，Steam的下載帶寬占用率迅速飆升至每秒70TB，這是一個(gè)巨大的數(shù)字。下載流量主要來自亞洲區(qū)，僅在峰值時(shí)就達(dá)到了每秒59.3TB，其次是北美區(qū)每秒7.8TB，以及緊隨其后每秒7.6TB的歐洲區(qū)。

It's worth noting that this bandwidth usage is across Steam as a whole, so there's bound to be some usage in there that isn't from Black Myth: Wukong. Also, when comparing it directly to Cyberpunk 2077, it's worth noting that the upcoming action RPG has a much larger storage space requirement, demanding at least 130GB rather than 70GB, so it'll be more demanding on that bandwidth in the first place. However, it's still indicative that Game Science could have a huge hit on its hands when the action RPG launches on PC and PS5 tomorrow, especially looking at the overall positive scores like in our own Black Myth: Wukong review.

值得注意的是，這是Steam整體帶寬使用情況，所以肯定會有一些下載流量不是來自《黑色神話:悟空》。此外，當(dāng)與《賽博朋克2077》游戲容量直接進(jìn)行比較時(shí)，值得注意的是，該款動(dòng)作RPG對存儲空間的要求要大得多，至少需要130GB而不是70GB，所以首先它對帶寬的要求更高。然而，當(dāng)這款游戲明天在PC和PS5上發(fā)布時(shí)，仍然預(yù)示著游戲科學(xué)將會獲得巨大的成功，尤其在我們網(wǎng)站《黑色神話:悟空》專題下的用戶評分以及評價(jià)結(jié)果來看。
