Back in April 2020, Steam set a new record for concurrent players by having over 24 million players online at the same time. And today, Valve’s platform was able to hit another record, by having 25 million concurrent players.
As we can see, CS:GO, DOTA 2 and PUBG are the most played games on Steam right now. Cyberpunk 2077, which came out recently, is in fourth place, followed by Grand Theft Auto 5. Rush, Team Fortress 2 and Rainbow Six Siege also are in sixth, seventh and eighth place, respectively. Football Manager 2020 is in ninth place and ARK: Survival Evolved is in the last place of the Top 10.
It will be interesting to see whether Steam will be able to hit its “26 million” goal in the coming months. After all, there are currently 25.418.674 players online.
Stay tuned for more!

OMG how is Cyberpuke on that list?! It is such a crappy game?! How are that many people palying it! Steam doesn’t deserve to break the record because SO MANY idiots are playing such a terrible game! I can’t belive idiots spend their time and money on something that CLEARLy isn’t any good or fun
I was trolling. Sorry. Didn’t think anybody would take my comment seriously.
I think the records will continue to roll in over the coming months. There is a practical limit to how high the records go but I don’t think we’ve reached that yet.
Sounds like console gamers are finding out they don’t have to pay to use their own internet
Ohhh console gamerz r-r-r-reck’ddddd https://media3.giphy.com/media/3mhQzhl6YyQ3bKIL29/giphy.gif
Epic where you at?
I find it funny how Cyberpunk 2077, a game with no multiplayer component is in a top spot where it’s at. People clearly love this game. I wish there was a way to know the GoG numbers. GTA V, I must’ve really missed the point of that game, because I just don’t understand it’s claim to fame. What is there to do in this game that has people do hooked. You’re not super powered in anyway or have anything crazy special about the characters you play. What is it that people cling to this game.
Its super grindy and has a lot of things to collect and customize. Its basically an interactive slot machine and taps into whatever it is that casinos tap into. That and the driving is actually pretty well done, so the loop isn’t as painful as it might be.
Is your loop painful?
Even WD1 is a technical masterpiece close to it.

Comparing a first person game, with a third person game. Then not even show the things that one game does better than the other.
It seems the hate is palpable, and dishonesty is the name of the game for you.
Try playing it.
You even have waves on Cyberpunk, that mobile game doesn’t have it. The game, obviously needs a lot to improve in physics wise, but this is just absolutely s##tupid.
The rampant hate is bizarre. I guess people got real burnt by buying into the hype.
