Due to the dark times that have engulfed the world, people understand the importance of self-isolation. This action brings a lot of boredom to everyone across the globe, for which online services are found to be the best companion for the period. Among them, the very best video game digital reseller platform, Steam, developed by Valve, has managed to get to its highest peak of concurrent players, with a number of over 23 million active users.
This was confirmed by the official Steam Stats page today. This showcases how the Coronavirus has had an impact on the population, and killing the boredom is as important as beating the virus globally.
More precisely, the Concurrent Steam Users number is at 23,621,276, sharing the same amount as the highest peak for the day. Below you can find a clear overview of which games have been played the most over the same period.

Steam is a platform that gathers people, and the stats just confirm the same. I am personally self-isolated for more than 15 days, and I don’t even want to elaborate on what would happen if I am left without an internet connection or any source of entertainment. Therefore, to all the people in the world following the government’s orders, stay tough, and have fun playing video games!
