While we're on the topic, here's how we ranked the best RPGs ever. For example, Baldur's Gate 3 is PC-exclusive until its PS5 launch next month, whereas most other games mentioned here were multiplatform at launch - undoubtedly dividing their player bases. Industry analyst Benji Sales reported that Baldurs Gate 3 currently boasts an impressive 418,991+ players, a remarkable achievement for a game that had spent. Of course, there's so much context and factors to consider when making these kinds of comparisons. I would not be the least bit surprised to see Baldur's Gate 3 inch past Fallout 4 sooner or later, which would be an incredible feat for the D&D RPG. Fallout 4's record is 472,962 - just 800 players more than Baldur's Gate 3. Hogwarts Legacy Steam player count peaked at 807,112 concurrent players on February 11. Since I made the comparison at the start, it's worth clarifying just how close Baldur's Gate 3 is to beating Fallout 4, the Bethesda game with the highest peak concurrent players on Steam. Behind Hogwarts Legacy is Fallout 4, with a peak concurrent just hundreds higher than Baldur's Gate 3. Cyberpunk 2077, Elden Ring, and New World are all sitting right around the one million park, while Hogwarts Legacy sits at a respectable 879k. However, it's slowly inching up the ranks of the RPGs with the highest concurrent players on Steam.

Meanwhile, the now third-biggest launch of the year for Steam is Sons of the Forest at 414,257.īaldur's Gate 3 is also the second-most played game on Steam right now behind CS:GO, but that's not as impressive since it's by far the biggest game that launched today. Hogwarts Legacy is still far and away Steam's most successful launch by players for this year, with a peak concurrent of 879,308.
