All-time peak concurrent players
Each game's single highest recorded concurrent-player count, ever — taking whichever is higher of steamcharts.com's monthly peak history (which reaches back to a game's release) and the census's own live samples (running since Aug 2026). Older, one-time launch spikes usually come from steamcharts.com; a game still climbing right now can beat that from the census's own live data. Ranked at 50+ Steam reviews.
