Steam has also shared several other lists such as the highest grossing VR games, the highest grossing games that launched out of Steam Early Access this year, and finally, the most played games in 2018 as measured by the highest peak of concurrent players.
What’s interesting is that CS GO is in the Platinum section, which means it sold like crazy, and yet they decided to go F2P with it.
