This is about a million higher than the last time we reported on Steam's online concurrent user record, in early February this year. Valve's platform certainly keeps growing at a steady pace.

SteamDB also shared the top sellers for last week. Farming Simulator 2022 took the top spot from Battlefield 2042, while Cyberpunk 2077 and Read Redemption 2 bounced back to the third and fourth spot thanks to 50% discounts from Steam's Autumn sale; both titles are now priced at $29.99 until December 1st.

The Top 10 is closed by Myth of Empires, the multiplayer sandbox game that launched recently on Steam Early Access.
