What are trending Steam games?

Trending games on SteamScope combine recent player growth, 7-day momentum, and live activity into one ranking. Titles climbing in concurrent players appear above flat or declining games.

How is trending different from most played?

Most played ranks by raw concurrent players right now. Trending weights growth percentages and SteamScope activity scores so breakout hits and post-update surges surface even if they are not yet top-tier blockbusters.

How often does the trending list update?

Trend scores and player counts refresh on a rolling schedule, typically about every 30 minutes for high-priority titles, as collectors and trend calculations complete.

Why did a game suddenly appear on trending?

Common triggers include major patches, free weekends, seasonal events, influencer coverage, or a sustained climb after launch. Open the game page to compare the spike against historical charts.

Trending Steam games on SteamScope combine recent player growth, 7-day momentum, and live activity into a single ranking. Games with strong upward movement appear first, helping you spot breakout hits before they dominate the most-played leaderboard.

Unlike the main games directory sorted by raw concurrent players, this page weights growth percentages and SteamScope activity scores so sustained momentum ranks above one-day spikes or legacy titles with large but flat audiences.

Browse trending titles to find rising multiplayer communities, post-update surges, and games gaining attention on Steam right now. Each row links to full player history, peaks, achievements, pricing, and similar-game discovery pages.

Rankings refresh as trend calculations and live player collectors complete their scheduled runs. Pair this page with Most Played to compare what is biggest today versus what is climbing fastest.
