Just about a week ago, we published the Top 20 Steam games according to number of players. Surprisingly, many of them are developed or published by relatively smaller companies. However, 20 games are very limited so, we took a look at the games being played according to genre. Based on the data, being a “AAA” game or having realistic graphics is not enough to attract more players.
Again, as we have said before, the data on number of players should be taken for what it is. A low player count doesn’t always mean a bad game. It’s possible that the publisher just don’t have enough budget for marketing and a good product won’t sell well if people are not aware about it. There are more than 100 games we listed so, we split the article into pages for easier browsing.
