CS:GO continues to set records for the number of players. Only in early February, the game took a mark in 874.875 people, and now has exceeded 900 thousand. March 1, shooter played 925.990 people according to Steam and 924.045 according SteamChart.

Perhaps this is due to several factors. First, in December 2018 Counter-Strike: Global Offensive was free, which led to the growth of its popularity. Secondly, due to the lack of major releases, many players return to their favorite and proven games. Thirdly, the continuing churn from the battle of pianos.

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive was released on August 21, 2012 on PC.
