Steam Shatters Concurrent Players Peak Yet Again
You could attribute this to more people staying at home due to the COVID-19 coronavirus pandemic. Also, eagerly awaited games like TaleWorlds’ Mount and Blade 2: Bannerlord and Resident Evil 3 launched before the weekend, resulting in a bump in player numbers. Either way, Steam is benefiting greatly from the increased traffic.
We’ll have to wait and see how the coming weeks plays out especially as more people stay at home. In the meantime, some of the bigger releases for the month on Steam include Square Enix’s Trials of Mana and The Coalition’s Gears Tactics. Stay tuned for more details to see if the concurrent player peak goes up once more.

Int I really hope though that this helps Steam grow in general and not just because there's a pandemic, I'm hoping they actually keep users on board.
I'm sure they will. A lot of people who are home probably are trying out steam for the first time or using it more than they normally do which is probably making them fall in love with it because it's very user friendly and offers a lot.

The player count will continue to climb until this pandemic is gone, hopefully it's resolved soon. But steam has seen a lot of growth like other platforms.

This will keep happening I'm assuming as well. The company I work for just furloughed 75% of our workers. It seems cool that more people are playing, but in this case the cost outweighs the benefit. Watched a lot of good people go today who may not be back since we don't know when the current work environment will ease up.
