Lost Ark beats CS:GO and Dota 2’s Steam peak player records
As the latest online MMO from Amazon after New World, Lost Ark was always going to be popular, especially as it's free-to-play. However, in just two days, the Lost Ark Steam player count has shot up to the point that it is now the second-highest in Steam's history - beating even Counter-Strike: Global Offensive and Dota 2.
Lost Ark was already enormously popular before it officially released, so much so that Amazon and developer Smilegate RPG had to add a lot more servers to let people play. However, Lost Ark's proper launch day as a free-to-play game was Friday, February 11 - and saw the MMO's concurrent player count peak become both the fifth game to break a million and also the fifth-highest player count ever.
A day later and that player count peak has shot up even further to a new record, making Lost Ark not only the most popular game on Steam right now - but also the game with the second-highest concurrent player count peak in Steam's history. And it's only Lost Ark's second day.
