Riot Games Says League of Legends Hits 8 Million Concurrent Users Daily

Despite 10 years old, League of Legends is still the world's most successful PC game, regularly taking the #1 spot on SuperdataResearch's highest grossing PC games list. While we haven't seen any official stats from Riot Games in sometime, they did come out today and say that the game hits 8 million peak concurrent players daily.

Every day we see about 8 million peak concurrent players in League.* That makes League the biggest PC game in the world—it's even bigger than the top ten games on Steam combined. Together, we’ve built a thriving community around the world, and we want to show our appreciation for all of you. If you're not able to catch the celebration on October 15th, don't worry. We'll rebroadcast the livestream throughout the following day.
