    PSN had 129 million MAU in December 2024. Source. That’s less than Steam had in 2021 - 132 million MAU. Source.

    Across all platforms, including Xbox and PC, Microsoft reported 500 million MAU in the fiscal quarter ending June 2024. Source.

      The user figures are strongly impacted by the closing of Microsoft’s acquisition of gaming giant Activision Blizzard

      I was sceptical of the 500m figure for Xbox (even if we include Xbox on Windows); but it makes sense if they include Battle.net figures I guess…

        In the fiscal quarter ending June 2024, Microsoft reported over 500 million monthly active gaming users across all platforms and devices

        I assume that includes Windows as a platform, which would include Steam users as well. It’s easy to look good when you include your competitor’s numbers in your own.
