Brand New PS5 Update Adding Feature That Steam Users Have Had for Years

For years, PC gamers have been able to see how many people are playing games on Steam, thanks to tools like SteamDB which started around 2013. Valve even created its own official Steam Charts in 2022, showing current player numbers for all games, along with top sellers and the most popular titles. Console gamers on Xbox Series X/S and PlayStation 5 don’t have this feature. They usually have to guess how many people are playing based on estimates, what the game shows in-game, or information released by the game developers. PC gamers, however, can instantly see which games are currently popular on Steam.
