The Witcher 3 Remastered Steam Player Record
The free update includes prior expansions and helped draw back lapsed players, with SteamDB recording the game as Valve’s ninth most-played title.
- On Tuesday, The Witcher 3 reached nearly 120,000 concurrent players on Steam, setting a new all-time record for the 11-year-old RPG following the Remastered edition release.
- Previous peaks included 92,000 players at launch in 2015 and 103,000 in January 2020 during Netflix series popularity, while a December 2022 update brought 89,000 concurrent players.
- SteamDB recorded the milestone, making The Witcher 3 the ninth most-played title on Valve's platform; the nearly 120,000 figure covers Steam exclusively against a reported 65 million total playerbase.
- The Steam record excludes players on GOG, Epic Games Store, PlayStation, Switch 2, and Xbox, meaning the total audience returning to the Continent is substantially larger than the 120,000 figure.
- CD Projekt Red is using the Remastered release to prime players for Songs of the Past, planned for next year, positioning the franchise for sustained engagement.
