Counter-Strike 2 stays top with a 30-day peak of 1,450,705 players online at once on Steam, the same as last week. Dota 2 is second on 897,660. It enters this week with Valheim (fourth, 307,757) and Marvel Rivals (eighth, 146,426) because the chart now includes games rated PEGI 12 or an equivalent 12+ rating, not only games rated 16 or 18. That moves PUBG: Battlegrounds down to third and Apex Legends to fifth, though both peaks are almost unchanged. Rust slips to sixth even though its peak rose from 148,276 to 162,249.

Limbus Company, Delta Force and The Outlast Trials are also new. The Outlast Trials' average player count more than tripled over the month. Path of Exile 2, Rainbow Six Siege X, The Witcher 3, Warframe, Grand Theft Auto V Enhanced and The Binding of Isaac: Rebirth drop out.

WARDOGS, FiveM, Bongo Cat and Aniimo all had higher peaks but are left out. We found no ratings board's 12+ rating for the first three, and Aniimo is rated PEGI 7. Each figure is the 30-day peak on that game's Steam Charts page, read on 9 October 2026. Steam figures don't include players on consoles or other PC launchers.

How the chart works
