PUBG Online Player Base Surged in December

PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS continued to demonstrate its enduring popularity in December 2024, as the game’s average monthly player count on Steam surpassed 320,000, marking a nearly two percent increase from November.

According to Steam Charts, the game also recorded a peak online count of 799,000 players in December—3,000 more than the previous month. This figure represents one of the highest peaks for PUBG in recent years, highlighting the game's sustained appeal among players.

For context, PUBG achieved its highest-ever player metrics in January 2018, when the average monthly player count exceeded 1.5 million, and the game reached an all-time peak of over 3.2 million concurrent players. While current numbers are lower than those record-breaking figures, they signal a notable resurgence for the battle royale giant.
