New Steam record for the number of people online at the same time

On the information portal SteamDB, information has appeared that the Valve store has updated its record for the number of people online at the same time. On November 27, at the same time, there was  27 182 165 people. At the same time, 7.8 million visitors played games from them. 

The previous achievement was recorded at the end of 2021. Then the number of visitors was 26.9 million users. First of all, such an influx of users occurred due to the fact that many stayed at home due to the situation with the coronavirus. 

The current record, perhaps, is due to the time of discounts in the store. It will last until December 1, it is possible that the mark will be beaten before that time.
