The video gaming community has been putting up magnificent performances on the board with new games thriving on the popularity charts. High on Life has been gaining a heavy spotlight regarding its roaring prevalence in the community. Surprisingly, a new development might just be a proud moment for the game as an Xbox Game Pass title.

High on Life continues to amaze the community by beating GTA V to come in the first three spots of most played games on Xbox
The Twitter user Benji-Sales (@BenjiSales), a trusted source of surfacing video gaming developments, shared the impeccable achievement of High on Life on Xbox. Apparently, High on Life has surpassed Grand Theft Auto V as the most-played game on Xbox, taking the 3rd position overall.
Meanwhile, Call of Duty Modern Warfare II (2022) and Fortnite stand ahead of High on Life. But the fact that a Game Pass title has managed to thrive so well on the charts is one that would surely make it to the history books. Though the source hasn’t been confirmed yet, the title could surely be a record-breaking one.
Celebrating this achievement, a fan stated, “It’s a great game. You could cut out the humor and it’d still half a solid sci-fi story. (compared to some shooters) I knew it was going to be something special from the first trailer, and it didn’t disappoint me on any level.”
Some fan reactions
Highlighting the genre of High on Life and the developers’ feat, a fan said, “I feel like the unique concepts and humor helped this game have such a strong performance of an Xbox third party deal in a long-time. Maybe they and Squanch Games will partner for future projects.”
To throw some more light on the reactions of the people, here are the respective tweets below:
I think whenever a game that has huge knockout success for Xbox, Microsoft will probably work with developers more frequently for future projects. My honest take!

I'm also shocked with how well it's been doing in the top 5 most played gamepass titles here in Australia. Congratulations goes to Squanch Games for it.

I cannot remember something similar honestly. This is really out of nowhere. I’m wondering if all the social media attention the game got helped boost it.

Wow that's huge. I'm not on it but apparently it's all over Tik Tok which is obviously getting in front of people and peaking interest. I could see how snippets of its comedy would get noticed on Tik Tok and YouTube.
