PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds Surpasses Dota 2 in Concurrent Users
With a myriad of streamers and YouTubers getting a piece of the action, it’s no wonder the game has grown to its current peak of popularity. Today PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds achieved the highest concurrent users on Steam with nearly 900,000 players, beating out Counter-Strike: Global Offensive by over 300,000 players, and DOTA 2 by a slim 40,000.
The thing about PUBG is that it doesn’t seem to want to slow down. The game attracted 90,000 new players in July, and another 130,000 in August. While these figures are outstanding, it’s crazy to think that the game hasn’t even made it out of Early Access. Dislodging DOTA 2 from the top spot on Steam is an incredible achievement for Brendan Greene (PlayerUnknown himself) and developer Bluehole Studio Inc. PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is nowhere close to DOTA 2‘s peak player count, which reached its height in 2016 and the two games continue to go back and forth in their fight for the highest current player count. You can find the stats below, with PUBG in green and DOTA 2 in blue.

PlayerUnknown Battlegrounds blew up pretty quickly and now it's one of most successful games so far. I haven't tried it yet but I'm deffiently going to be playing it once it comes to Xbox one.
