Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS:GO) has smashed its all-time concurrent PC user peak. Yes, again.
Clocking up a record 1.5 million concurrent players earlier today (thanks, SteamDB), that means CS:GO now sports Steam’s second-biggest concurrent players record .
Whilst it still has some ways to go to take the top spot – pole position holder PUBG Battlegrounds’ concurrent record is twice as high at CS:GO’s at 3.2 million – it’s an incredible feat for a decade-old shooter.
The seminal shooter – which has been around in one form or another for over 20 years at this point – only recently surpassed its own concurrent record, hitting an all-time peak of 1.32 million players last month, and then breaching 1.4m just a couple of weeks ago.
