Steam's peak online exceeded 37 million users

The Steam game store set a new online record (https://store.steampowered.com/charts/) amid a vibrant broadcast (https://wylsa.com/igrovaya-nedelya-deadlock-ot-valve-novaya-mafia-i-geroi-borderlands-4-i-drugie-anonsy-s-gamescom-2024/) of Gamescom Opening Night Live 2024 and the successful launch of Black Myth: Wukong. More than 37 million players logged in simultaneously.

Despite the overall decline (https://www.ft.com/content/cc6bd66c-6341-4367-85cc-86d274102378) in the gaming industry, Valve's store is not in danger. Over the year, the platform's peak online grew by more than seven million people or 25%, which is comparable to the store's growth rate during the Covid years of 2020 and 2021. The recently announced (https://wylsa.com/igrovaya-nedelya-deadlock-ot-valve-novaya-mafia-i-geroi-borderlands-4-i-drugie-anonsy-s-gamescom-2024/) shooter Deadlock will help further strengthen the company's income in the future.
