In 2023, more than 14500 games were released on Steam - an all-time record for the service!

The gaming industry, despite the global crisis, continues to develop rapidly. Every year more and more games are released on various platforms and 2023 was no exception.

Here's What We Know

According to SteamDB statistics, in 2023, 14,535 games were released in the Steam digital shop alone. This is an absolute record of the platform!

It is noteworthy that the number of released games is steadily increasing, a sag was observed only in 2019. Probably, such indicators became possible due to the release of a large number of indie games and the availability of tools for their creation. Yes, such projects are not always of high quality, but recently there are more and more decent games among them.

Obviously, the trend of growing number of games will continue in 2024: 84 games were released on Steam in just three full days.
