Steam gamers love older titles.
That’s the word from this year’s Steam end-of-year review,Steam Replay.
The vast majority of playtime on Steam is spent on games that came out before 2024.
15% of playing time on Steam was on games that came out in 2024.
The 15% of playtime covered by games released in 2024 is higher than the respective figure from 2023.
Last year only 9% of playtime on Steam was spent on games that came out in 2023.
Looking back further to 2022, 17% of playtime was on games that came out that year.
My takeaway here is that many PC games age well and remain popular for a long time.
Our colleagues atPC Gamernoted that live service games often top theSteamcharts.
The medal stand of games with the most current players seems unlikely to change any time soon.
