Despite being six years old, The Crew 2 has smashed its concurrent Steam player count record thanks to a steep discount.

Amid a steep discount and Ubisoft confirming offline support in response to community backlash, The Crew 2 has set an impressive new concurrent player record on Steam.

The Crew 2 Breaks Previous Concurrent Player Record By 846%​

According to Steam Charts, The Crew 2’s concurrent player counts on Steam peaked at 55,125 last Sunday, September 15, setting a new all-time peak player record. That’s a staggering 846.27% gain, beating the previous 12,707 record set in July 2021 by a huge margin. What makes this achievement more impressive is that The Crew 2 is over six years old, originally released in July 2018.

Coupled with Ubisoft announcing The Crew 2 and Motorfest will receive an offline patch after the servers for the original were shut down, the huge player spike is the result of an unprecedented 98% discount. At just £0.84 / €0.90 / $1.00, The Crew 2 is currently cheaper than a cup of coffee or a McDonald’s cheeseburger.
