About $1B/year. CS:GO is the highest grossing game on Steam, according to some sources, all agree its top 5. Why is that irrelevant?

- jsheard 1y agoAlso consistently the most played game on Steam by a fair margin. That doesn't necessarily make it the most played PC game since some big titles like League and Fortnite aren't on Steam, but it's at least close.
- Ferret7446 1y agoRaid shadow legends is also estimated to make around $1B/year, and there are many such mobile games. Roblox made $3.6B in 2024. Fornite makes $3-5B/year for the past ~decade. Genshin Impact is estimated to make ~$10B this year. Not only in revenue, but all of the above have way more cultural impact/awareness too. The pond is very big, but it's easy to miss that if you're in a bubble in that pond.
- Yokolos 1y agoCS is consistently the top played game on Steam every year. Are you saying Steam isn't relevant? That's quite the claim to be making.
- refulgentis 1y agoYou didn't know what you were talking about and got caught in it. That's fine! I was surprised too. Something I've learned with age is it's better to have a laugh together than throw out more cover.
