Baldur’s Gate is incredibly popular on Steam.

According to SteamDB, Baldur’s Gate 3 player count currently sits at 117,848 players on the PC version of the game. While Baldur’s Gate 3 hasn’t broken the million players mark yet, it did smash its previous record of 814,666 on August 13, 2023, by securing a whopping 875,343 players.

Of course, like all games, Baldur’s Gate 3’s player count will fluctuate as time goes on, but for now, the game sits proudly in seventh place below the likes of Apex Legends, Dota 2, and Counter-Strike 2.
