Here Are The Top Performing Steam Games Of 2023 <p><img loading="lazy" src="https://ift.tt/nKTCNtv" width="800" height="450" alt="Baldur&#039;s Gate 3" typeof="foaf:Image" class="image-style-body-default" /></p> <p>Valve has released its annual "Best Of" list highlighting the top-performing games on Steam measured by gross revenue and player engagement.</p> <p>The categories are top sellers, best-selling new releases, most-played games on PC, most-played games on Steam Deck, highest-grossing early access games, most-played using a controller, and best-selling VR titles. The top 12 games in each category earn Platinum status, while everything below them is grouped into a descending ranking of Gold, Silver, and Bronze. It's a fun snapshot of the games Steam users dug into most this year and a reminder that games seemingly on the downtrend or long in the tooth (like, say, Destiny 2) clearly have a lot of players still logging in to play.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> <p>You can view the complete list <a href="https://ift.tt/oHalNYP>, but we’ve listed the Platinum-ranked games alphabetically in each category (Valve does not rank these games).</p> <h2>Top Sellers (highest gross revenue earned in 2023)</h2> <ul> <li aria-level="1">Apex Legends</li> <li aria-level="1">Baldur’s Gate 3</li> <li aria-level="1">Call of Duty (MW III, Warzone, MW II)</li> <li aria-level="1">Counter-Strike 2</li> <li aria-level="1">Cyberpunk 2077</li> <li aria-level="1">Destiny 2</li> <li aria-level="1">Dota 2</li> <li aria-level="1">Hogwarts Legacy</li> <li aria-level="1">Lost Ark</li> <li aria-level="1">PUBG: Battlegrounds</li> <li aria-level="1">Sons of the Forest</li> <li aria-level="1">Starfield</li> </ul> <h2>New Releases (most revenue earned during first two weeks of launch)</h2> <ul> <li>Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon</li> <li>Baldur's Gate 3</li> <li>Cities: Skylines II</li> <li>EA Sports FC 24</li> <li>Hogwarts Legacy</li> <li>Payday 3</li> <li>Remnant II</li> <li>Resident Evil 4 (remake)</li> <li>Sons of the Forest</li> <li>Starfield</li> <li>Star Wars Jedi: Survivor</li> <li>Street Fighter 6</li> </ul> <h2>Most Played (number of peak concurrent player counts over 40,000)</h2> <ul> <li>Apex Legends</li> <li>Baldur's Gate 3</li> <li>Counter-Strike 2</li> <li>Destiny 2</li> <li>Dota 2</li> <li>Goose Goose Duck</li> <li>Hogwarts Legacy</li> <li>Lost Ark</li> <li>PUBG: Battlegrounds</li> <li>Sons of the Forest</li> <li>Starfield&nbsp;</li> </ul> <h2>Early Access (highest gross revenue earned before and after launching in 1.0 this year)</h2> <ul> <li>Against the Storm</li> <li>Baldur's Gate 3</li> <li>Dave the Diver</li> <li>Demonologist</li> <li>Disney Dreamlight Valley</li> <li>Everspace 2</li> <li>Farlight 84</li> <li>Marvel Snap</li> <li>My Time at Sandrock</li> <li>Ready or Not</li> <li>Sun Haven</li> <li>Wartales</li> </ul> <h2>Steam Deck (most played games on the device based on daily active player counts this year)</h2> <ul> <li>Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon</li> <li>Baldur's Gate 3</li> <li>Cyberpunk 2077</li> <li>Dave the Diver</li> <li>Elden Ring</li> <li>Half-Life</li> <li>Hogwarts Legacy</li> <li>Grand Theft Auto V</li> <li>Resident Evil 4 (remake)</li> <li>Starfield</li> <li>Vampire Survivors</li> <li>The Witcher 3: Wild Hunt</li> </ul> <h2>Controller (games most played using a gamepad)</h2> <ul> <li>Apex Legends</li> <li>Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon</li> <li>Call of Duty (MW III, Warzone, MW II)</li> <li>EA Sports FC 24</li> <li>Elden Ring</li> <li>FIFA 23</li> <li>Hogwarts Legacy</li> <li>NBA 2K23</li> <li>Resident Evil 4 (remake)</li> <li>Rocket League</li> <li>Starfield</li> <li>Street Fighter 6</li> </ul> <h2>VR (highest revenue earned)</h2> <ul> <li>Beat Saber</li> <li>Blade &amp; Sorcery</li> <li>Bonelab</li> <li>Boneworks</li> <li>The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim VR</li> <li>Five Nights at Freddy's: Help Wanted 2</li> <li>Ghosts of Tabor</li> <li>Gorilla Tag</li> <li>Half-Life: Alyx</li> <li>Into the Radius VR</li> <li>Pavlov</li> <li>VTOL VR</li> </ul> https://ift.tt/Tkc4ZMu
