How Many People Are Playing Red Dead Online In 2024

Broadly speaking there is a rough average of almost 2,000 concurrent players on the Red Dead Online Steam servers at any given time. The monthly peak concurrent player count reaches about 3500-4,500 players most months.

This means that a good amount of players still play the game, considering that the game's all-time peak only reached about 18,000. The game's concurrent player count tends to spike around holidays and events, and more players also tend to log on when Rockstar releases an update to the game. It's also worth noting that this count also does not include the many players that play the game exclusively on Xbox, PlayStation, or other platforms.
