It&#8217;s a quick thank you to the fans who have found the game, promising to gift them a new map at some point in the next few days.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;2 million copies sold! Thank you so much!&#8221; a version of the statement posted to X\/Twitter said. &#8220;A new map will be added in the second half of this week!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The party game, which lets players blend into environments by painting their bodies, released June 9 on PC via Steam. A separate Steam post from June 13, just two days ago, thanked fans for helping it reach 1 million copies sold.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">There&#8217;s no denying that it&#8217;s a strong start for the latest entry in the trend of multiplayer games known for their unique gameplay and low price point. Many online refer to this genre of game as &#8220;friendslop,&#8221; and it&#8217;s clear this particular brand of slop is one players will keep coming back for. SteamDB recorded Meccha Chameleon as having a peak of around 20,000 concurrent players on June 10. Its all-time peak, reached just hours before this story was published, now sits at 132,154.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">&#8220;The way you hide is a bit special,&#8221; an official description for Meccha Chameleon says. &#8220;Paint your pure white body to blend into the stage. Just like a chameleon. The hiding spot, the pose, and above all, your artistic skills are the key! Deceive the Seekers&#8217; eyes with a mimicry that would even surprise a chameleon.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span data-cy=\"slideshow-view-trigger\"><\/p>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-preview\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 slideshow-preview\">\n<h3 class=\"title5 jsx-62124236 jsx-1085005187\" data-cy=\"slideshow-preview-title\">Meccha Chameleon Steam Screenshots<\/h3>\n<div data-cy=\"slideshow-images-container\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 images-container\"><button type=\"button\" data-cy=\"hero-image\" aria-label=\"Open Slideshow\" class=\"jsx-1711207865 hero-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Image courtesy of lemorion_1224.\" class=\"progressive-image jsx-2896921488 image aspect-ratio aspect-ratio-16-9 jsx-2605834259 jsx-2338608387 hover-opacity\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/imdbnews.ir\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/meccha-chameleon-the-new-hide-and-seek-paint-game-reaches-2-million-copies-sold.gif\" data-cy=\"progressive-image\"><span class=\"button-text jsx-729543028 button button--primary jsx-3381835873 jsx-4266531355 row-pagination-button next contained centered round large\" data-cy=\"paginate next\" title=\"Open Slideshow\"><span class=\"ign-icon right-chevron jsx-2750866048 jsx-2919720488\" role=\"presentation\" aria-hidden=\"true\" data-cy=\"right-chevron\"><\/span><\/span><\/button><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">While details on that new map haven&#8217;t been revealed quite yet, Meccha Chameleon&#8217;s premise means any new location could potentially generate hours and hours of more time for players to spend hiding from and seeking their friends. It&#8217;s unclear how long lemorion plans to keep updating the game with new content, but updates have rolled out consistently since launch. IGN has reached out for comment.<\/p>\n<p data-cy=\"paragraph\" class=\"paragraph jsx-2269604527\">The most recent update, version 1.2.2, launched today. It made adjustments to reduce motion sickness while playing as the Hunter and added a key to hide the &#8220;Missed Enemies&#8221; ranking.
