PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS is an incredibly popular game. The Battle Royal inspired indie multiplayer game has hit some impressive milestones in its short time on Steam. All figures and charts shown in this article are from the fine folks at Steam Charts.

Below is the list we spoke about in Episode 22: BLUEBERRY DANISH FT. BOX BLURB of our podcast. This list shows the top records for concurrent players of a game, with PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS beating out massive titles like GTA 5, Left 4 Dead 2 and every other game that isn’t Dota 2, CS: GO and Fallout 4.

Here is a list taken on the morning of the 23rd of July, 2017 (AEST), which shows PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS growing numbers from March 2017. You can see a phenomenally impressive gain, with huge peak player number growth from month to month too.

We chatted about our different thoughts on the game on Episode 21 of the Versus Player podcast; PLAYERUNKNOWN’S BATTLEGROUNDS DIVIDES US. On Episode 22: BLUEBERRY DANISH FT.
