[QUOTE="Admin, post: 60570, member: 1"] Starfield has overtaken The Elder Scrolls 5: Skyrim's all-time concurrent players record on Steam in its first weekend available after full launch. Data from [URL='https://steamdb.info/charts/?sort=peak']SteamDB[/URL] shows Starfield sitting in 27th place in Steam's all-time list, while Skyrim is now in 31st. Starfield hit a peak of 330,723 concurrent players on September 10, while Skyrim's record peaked 12 years ago at 287,411. The space epic fell short of developer Bethesda's previous release Fallout 4, however, which sits in 16th place overall with 472,962. While it's perhaps surprising to some that Starfield hasn't achieved a higher spot on the list, having [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/starfield-biggest-bethesda-rpg-of-all-time']topped six million players[/URL] overall with [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/starfield-exceeds-one-million-concurrent-players']one million concurrents on launch day[/URL], its inclusion on Xbox Game Pass has likely largely convoluted its numbers. Though it was arguably the most anticipated game in recent memory, [URL='https://www.ign.com/articles/all-the-games-coming-to-and-leaving-xbox-game-pass-in-september']Starfield is available at no extra cost to those with Game Pass[/URL], meaning a large number of players who'd usually buy it on Steam likely opted for the subscription service version. That's not stopped Starfield from performing well, of course, as overtaking Skyrim is a significant milestone. It also topped the UK boxed chart according to GI.biz head Christopher Bing on [URL='https://twitter.com/Chris_Dring/status/1700984361594839240']X[/URL].
