That\u2019s enough to make EA\u2019s new first-person shooter the second most-played game on Valve\u2019s platform, behind only Counter-Strike 2. Battlefield 6 is already the 14th most-played game ever on Steam, with Larian\u2019s Baldur\u2019s Gate 3 in its sights.<\/p>\n<p>For context, the Battlefield 6 open beta hit a peak concurrent player count of 521,079. No other Battlefield game has ever come close to these numbers on Steam before. Indeed, Battlefield 6 already has more players than EA&#8217;s previous Steam record-holder, the free-to-play Apex Legends, which makes the $70 Battlefield 6&#8217;s achievement all the more impressive.<\/p>\n<p>And if you\u2019re wondering, the Call of Duty app, which encompasses all Call of Duty games, has a peak concurrent player count of 491,670 on Steam, which means Battlefield 6 is well on its way to doubling the record set by its FPS rival.<\/p>\n<section data-transform=\"ignvideo\" data-slug=\"battlefield-6-5-things-you-need-to-know\" data-loop=\"\"><\/section>\n<p>The true concurrent player count will be much higher, when you consider players on PlayStation and Xbox, but neither Sony nor Microsoft make those numbers public. (This of course also counts for Call of Duty, which historically is stronger on console than PC.) Perhaps inevitably, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/battlefield-6-developer-triggers-queue-system-for-launch-as-fans-immediately-face-full-servers\">Battlefield 6 players face server queues<\/a>, although it doesn&#8217;t take too long to log in right now. It\u2019s early days, of course, but it looks like Battlefield 6 is a smash hit for EA.<\/p>\n<p>Battlefield 6 already has a huge number of players, but it also already has Call of Duty maps, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/battlefield-6-launched-just-hours-ago-and-players-have-already-recreated-call-of-duty-map-shipment-in-portal\">with one eager fan recreating Modern Warfare favorite Shipment in Portal<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>While you wait to play, check out IGN&#8217;s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/battlefield-6-review-multiplayer\"><u>Battlefield 6 multiplayer review in progress<\/u><\/a>, our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/battlefield-6-campaign-review\"><u>Battlefield 6 campaign review<\/u><\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/articles\/battlefield-6-season-1-roadmap-revealed-heres-what-to-expect\"><u>what to expect from Battlefield Season 1<\/u><\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Based on our time with the Battlefield 6 beta, we\u2019ve got a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/wikis\/battlefield-6\/Battlefield_6_Beta_Beginner%27s_Guide_and_Tips\"><u>BF6 Beginner\u2019s Guide and Tips<\/u><\/a>, plus the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/wikis\/battlefield-6\/Best_BF6_Loadouts\"><u>best Battlefield 6 Loadouts<\/u><\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/wikis\/battlefield-6\/BF6_Range_Finder_Explained\"><u>how to use the Range Finder<\/u><\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/wikis\/battlefield-6\/How_to_Deploy_Bipod\"><u>deploy the Bipod<\/u><\/a>, and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ign.com\/wikis\/battlefield-6\/How_to_Turn_Off_Haptic_Feedback\"><u>how to turn off Haptic Feedback in Battlefield 6<\/u><\/a>.
