Steam Sets New Record with 38.3 Million Concurrent Users

The surge in player count is driven by popular new game releases and increasing global engagement.

Steam's concurrent user record was broken four times in the past month, peaking at 38.3 million users.
Recent releases like Black Myth: Wukong and Warhammer 40,000: Space Marine 2 have significantly contributed to the spike in user numbers.
Counter-Strike 2 remains the most-played game on Steam, with nearly 1.5 million concurrent players.
The platform's in-game concurrent record remains unbroken since August 25, with 12.5 million users playing games simultaneously.
Steam continues to dominate the PC gaming market, hosting over 100,000 games and seeing a steady rise in both player count and game releases.
