How Dota 2 is doing right now

Dota 2 currently has 631,389 players online, based on a reading we collected 2 minutes ago. That is +26.7% higher compared with the same time yesterday. Over the past 24 hours the count moved between 401,257 and 878,911 concurrent players. The seven-day peak is 962,845. The highest count in our records is 1,003,965, reached on August 23, 2026. The current figure is 63% of that peak. Player counts follow a strong daily and weekly cycle, so compare the same hour across different days rather than two readings taken hours apart. Steam recalculates its concurrent player figure about every 15 minutes, while we collect this game every 5 minutes, so the timestamp above is when we collected the number, not when Valve computed it. We have been recording Dota 2 since August 8, 2026 and refresh this page every 5 minutes.
