It's been several years since the release of Rockstar's Red Dead Redemption 2 and Red Dead Online, yet many players still log on to enjoy both games every day considering the vast amount of content to explore. But exactly how many people still play Red Dead Online? You might be surprised to learn that the servers are still very active, even if the game doesn't draw in quite as many players as it did when its doors first opened.
Here's everything you need to know about the current Red Dead Online player count, so you can decide whether there are enough people playing to warrant you also putting some time into Red Dead Online in 2024.
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.
