Baldur’s Gate 3 has reached the Top 10 most-played games in the history of Steam

It seemed impossible that anyone would be able to top The Legend of Zelda: Tears of the Kingdom and its 96 on Metacritic, but Larian Studios managed to do so. Baldur’s Gate 3 is a resounding success both in review scores and sales, something that also translates into the number of players who are currently enjoying the third installment of one of the most popular franchises of all time.

As we write these lines, Baldur’s Gate 3 has more than half a million people who are playing on PC through Steam, but if we look at the maximum number of concurrent users it has achieved, the figures are scary: nothing more and nothing less than 814,666 people at a time. These numbers have allowed it to position itself as the ninth most played video game on the platform, so let’s take a look at the TOP 10.

The 10 Most Played Games in Steam History

Thanks to SteamDB we can consult all kinds of statistics about the products that are sold in the Valve store, including the maximum peak of players that at some point broke the record for each title. Baldur’s Gate has the potential to keep climbing up the positions, although it does not seem that anyone is capable of even approaching the historical numbers of the king of the category: PUBG.

If you are playing Baldur’s Gate 3, do you know that there is an interactive map that allows you to locate all the secrets of the world? On the sidelines, we remind you that the game will also be released on PS5 and its release date is scheduled for September 6, 2023.
