What are the most played Steam games right now?

This page ranks tracked Steam games by live concurrent players — the number of people in each title at this moment. It is the fastest way to see what the Steam community is playing today without opening the client.

How is the most played list sorted?

Games are ordered by current concurrent Steam players, then by 24-hour peak and SteamScope activity score as tie-breakers. The leaderboard refreshes as player collectors finish their scheduled runs.

How often does the most played Steam games list update?

Rankings refresh on a rolling schedule, typically about every 30 minutes for high-priority titles. Counts can move quickly after major updates, free weekends, or viral moments.

Is this the same as Steam Charts?

SteamScope is an independent analytics site. We track concurrent players, historical peaks, trends, and store metadata with paginated game pages and charts. SteamScope is not affiliated with Valve Corporation.

Can I see historical player charts for each game?

Yes. Every row links to a dedicated game page with multi-range player history, all-time peaks, achievement stats, pricing, and similar-game recommendations.

This page ranks Steam games by live concurrent players right now — the same signal people search for when they ask what the most played Steam games are today. Current player counts reflect how many people are in each title at this moment, making it the fastest way to see what the Steam community is playing without opening the client.

Each entry includes 24-hour peak players, all-time peak records, trend direction, SteamScope activity score, and current Steam price where available. Open any game for player history charts, achievement breakdowns, similar-game recommendations, and head-to-head compare links.

Most played rankings update as Steam player collectors run across the platform, typically on a rolling schedule tuned to each game's tracking tier. High-traffic multiplayer games usually appear at the top; use pagination to browse the full leaderboard beyond the first page.

SteamScope is an independent Steam analytics site. We combine live concurrent players with historical CCU data, trend scores, and store metadata so you can spot breakout hits, compare genre peers, and monitor whether a blockbuster is still pulling a large audience.
