Dota 2 Is Most Concurrently Played Game On Steam

March 5, 2013 by Mathew Jones

A lot of people like this video game and played it at the same time

Like multiplayer? Want to assure yourself that there’ll definitely be people online when you’re interested in playing some? That’s definitely the case when you play Dota 2. That’s a scientific fact, even. That’s been proven by the bloody geniuses at PC Gamer who’ve done tests and studies using beakers and bunson burners and looking at the number that it says on the steam page for most played games. It tells us all that Dota 2 has dethroned Skyrim as the game most concurrently played on Steam.

Dota 2, for a game that technically isn’t even out yet, is truly incredible to play. On the surface level it’s fun to work as a team to defend and attack against incoming enemy lords and gradually spawning minion fodder. On the higher levels it’s the most dense and complex multiplayer experiences you can involve yourself in. This mix of immediate fun, a learning curve that demands you keep playing to keep learning, and extreme amount of tournament coverage along with the streaming culture that surrounds it.

If you’ve never played it and you don’t currently have a key, ask anyone you know, they’ll probably all have one. The keys are everywhere and they’re just crowding up our gift inventory. You’ve be doing us all a favour by starting playing Dota 2. Honestly it’d be like spring cleaning, only you get to play video games as a result. Let’s all plays some Dota 2 tonight! Let’s see if we can make that concurrently played number even higher.
