Steam has launched Steam Replay 2025 — an annual report with data on what and how users played on PC during the year. In addition to personal statistics, the service shows the overall gaming habits of the audience.
According to Steam Replay 2025, on average, 40% of gaming time was spent by users in projects released eight or more years ago. This category includes popular games like Dota 2 and PUBG: Battlegrounds. Another 44% of the time was spent on games aged one to seven years.
As a result, only 14% of the total time in Steam was taken up by new PC games released in 2025.
The report also shows that the median number of games a Steam user plays per year is only four. This suggests that most players prefer to spend time in a limited set of projects, rather than constantly switching between new releases.
Steam Replay 2025 includes statistics on the use of keyboard and mouse, controllers, as well as a separate section for Steam Deck owners with data on games on the Valve portable device.
