Damn, almost 370k playing MW2 on Steam alone.

 

[TintoConCasera]

31,113,969 users today.

 

[winjer]

31 million is an impressive figure

Meanwhile at Epic

 

[Holammer]

Final peak at 31,327,943 concurrent.

It's funny, while the competition obfuscates its trade secret engagement numbers, Valve wears it loud and proud. Whips out its metaphorical dick for all to see, even inviting them to take a closer look as the API is open for anyone wanting detailed info.

Activision made a good call.

This is what I was talking about, that was just the number of simultaneous auto-launched app auto-logs, which is not in any shape or form an accurate representation of people actually using the platform. Actual people playing was more like 8 million.

A healthy number of new users coming in, but active charts are still topped by games Valve released ten years ago.

And another record:

 

[ssringo]

My weekend marathon of Elden Ring played a role in the new record.

A ridiculously small role. But a role nonetheless! Congrats!

 

[SportsFan581]

Impressive. At some point some of them will even move on from CS2.

 

[StreetsofBeige]

So in a year, Steam concurrent user base hits a record that is 10% more than a year ago's record. No wonder console makers MS and Sony port over games. You never know. At some point even Nintendo might.

 

[Holammer]

And another record:

The last peak was in March, so maybe we'll see additional peaks till then.
I expected Steam's crazy covid lockdown peaks to remain unchallenged for years, but nope. The platform just keeps growing.

 

[Team Andromeda]

30 million? even the XBox One can beat that

 

[Diseased Yak]

My weekend marathon of Elden Ring played a role in the new record.

A ridiculously small role. But a role nonetheless! Congrats!

Mine as well! I beat the game twice in a row back when it first released, but recently picked it up again and I'm hopelessly addicted. My hands are hurting right now as I type this because of how much time I spent holding a controller this weekend, exploring the Lands Between.

 

[Portugeezer]

Crazy numbers.
