Steam Passes 39M CCUs

The Official Steam Charts reflect a new concurrent user record for Steam, showing Valve's online service peaked at over 39 million users this weekend (thanks DSOGaming). It was just about 10 weeks ago that Steam passed 38M concurrent users, which came just a month after it passed 37M CCUs. In case anyone asks, memorize the new magic number:

39,159,669

Give Steam and Company credit for having the tech chops to provide one of the most popular online gaming services serving millions that is mostly reliable and seen by it's users as a good value.
Life should not be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body, but rather to skid in broadside in a cloud of smoke, thoroughly used up, totally worn out, and loudly proclaiming "Wow! What a Ride! - HT

I guess, you're probably right.

Big popular new releases, and the time of year general usage uptake. Swimming in mainly VR circles for too long now, easy to lose track that millions show up for games, not just a few k.

Not sure where 1 million extras come from month on month though, i would care to be enlightened.

Easy. Just check here: https://store.steampowered.com/charts/mostplayed

F2P shit is always popular and the new Marvel game is a huge contributor to peak players. It also looks like PUBG has had some huge kind of resurgence for some reason (probably a significant patch/update or something). Then there's PoE 2 which isn't F2P (yet) but comparatively budget friendly and it seems to be quite popular with the casual trained monkey clickfest plebs demographic.

There's your million extra players.

I'd like to see stats with the growth of Steam's library.

It's littered with rubbish, soulless games developed and invested into, with the perspective of "If we can capture 0.00001% of the users, we're in the black! Just tick the boxes in whatever is trendy for art style and gameplay. How can we lose??"
