About SteamPlayerBase
SteamPlayerBase is a free website that shows how many people play each game on Steam right now, how that has changed over time, and what the games cost.
What it is
- Player counts and history for games on Steam: the number playing now, 24-hour and all-time peaks, and charts going back years.
- Store details and prices: Steam prices and price history, sales, free games, releases, reviews, tags and Steam Deck status.
- Changes as they happen: new games, updates and patch notes, and games removed from the store.
- Optional free accounts for a watchlist, alerts, lists and a profile. You can use everything else without signing in.
How the numbers are made is on How we count Steam players, and where each piece of data comes from is on Data sources.
Who runs it
SteamPlayerBase is an independent site, run by its owner with the help of the staff and moderators of our Discord server. We built the collector that asks Steam for its numbers, the database that keeps the history, and every page on the site ourselves.
What it is not
- Not affiliated with Valve or Steam. Steam and the Steam logo are trademarks of Valve Corporation. Game names and art belong to their owners.
- Not a store. We don’t sell games or keys. Store links take you to the store, and the price at its checkout is the one that counts.
- Not behind a paywall. Every page and number is free to see.
How it is paid for
- Ads from ad networks. While ads are on, the switch at the bottom of every page turns them off for you.
- Store commissions: some store links on game pages are affiliate links. When you buy through one, the store pays us a small share, at no cost to you. Game pages say so above the store list.
- Donations, once they open, from people who want to help. See Support and donate.
Nobody pays to be ranked or to change a number. Rankings come from the data alone, and prices come from the same sources whether or not we earn from a store.
