Steam released today a comprehensive summary of the first half of the year, including the list of the best-selling, most popular "traditional" and VR titles. As always, Valve's platform keeps the exact numbers in secret, but the list is split into four categories, platinum, gold, silver, and bronze, so it's better than nothing. It looks like PC players enjoy some older titles, while still enthusiastically buying and playing some most recent titles like Jurassic World Evolution and Kingdom Come: Deliverance.
Of course, there are some particular games that can be find on more than just one list, including PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds, Rainbow Six Siege, Grand Theft Auto V, Dota 2, and Warframe.
The most simultaneous players category is broken down into three sections: over 100,000 concurrent players, over 50,000, and over 25,000. Only six games made the top tier, Dota 2, PUBG, Warframe, CS: GO, GTA V, and Rainbow Six Siege. The second half of the year won't belong to Red Dead Redemption 2 for sure, as Rockstar hasn't revealed plans to bring the upcoming western on PC yet. Take a look:
