new record from steam
According to the updated database, the Steam platform has surpassed 30 million as the peak number of users as of yesterday. The platform, which decreased to 20 million users during the panic period that started with the declaration of the pandemic, recovered quickly and started to break records. The previous record was 29.9 million users. Currently, there are 21.2 million users on the platform.
On the gaming side, there are 8.5 million players, but this is not a new record. With 9.3 million players in February, the record still belongs to the past. The remaining part consists of users visiting different parts of the store.
A new era had begun in the gaming world when Valve opened the Steam store, which it first launched to sell its own games, to third-party developers. After Steam, many similar concepts such as Epic Games, Ubisoft Connect and Origin emerged.
