Six days ago, we informed you about Steam coming close – and finally breaking – to 20 million concurrent players. That was a direct result of the Coronavirus and today, Steam has set yet another record.
As we can see, Steam has just broken a new record with over 21 million concurrent players. To be more precise, Steam has peaked at 21,360,226 concurrent players. This number is somehow close to 22 million, so it will be interesting to see whether Steam will set another new record in the following days.
Naturally, Counter-Strike: Global Offensive is at the top of the games with most concurrent players. DOTA 2 is in the second place, followed by PUBG, Monster Hunter World and Rainbow Six Siege. Grand Theft Auto 5 is in sixth place, whereas Football Manager 2020 and ARK: Survival Evolved are in seventh and eighth place, respectively. Lastly, Destiny 2 and Rust are in ninth and tenth place.
Stay tuned for more!

“b-but muh free trash tier games I’ll never play”
And I’m here just waiting for some quarantine sales!
poor f4g, i’ll give you what i give to beggars so that you can buy a game if you behave nicely.
Between Steam, Humble, and GOG there is a sale going on 24/7365. U-play has a sale on right now too. There isnt a day of the year one of the major stores doesnt have a major sale going on. Unless you own 1500 games, there is something somewhere on sale you will enjoy.
Yeah I know that,
but the games I wanna buy are not often on sale.The games I want usually only go on sale on big Steam sales*
Yea well quarantine ? 🙂
Yes it does kind of take some luster away from these records considering why they are happening.
Here in the US 2 states have already issued “Shelter In Place” orders. California and Illinois. Most likely every state will follow suit over the next couple of months when there are possibly millions of cases of coronavirus reported here. The CDC has predicted that the worst case scenario is 200 million Americans will be infected by the virus before we are done with it.
The hell of the thing with this virus is that a person can appear to be perfectly healthy but still be spreading the virus.
