Steam reaches new concurrent user record

4.3
Yesterday, Steam averaged a peak of over 12 million concurrent users.

At roughly 8pm GMT, on Sunday, January 3, the number of concurrent users on Steam reached 12,332,504 – a new record for the PC’s foremost digital
marketplace.

This is the highest so far for Steam, which broke the 10M record in June of last year. The record number was achieved in the last day of Steam’s big winter sale, when most people decided to make some final discounted purchases.

You can see all the new stats through Steam’s stats page.
