Skyrim Special Edition is close to topping its peak concurrent player record following an enormous sale that made it cheaper than ever.
It honestly seems hard to believe that there are people out there who don't own Skyrim, but it turns out there are. Or were, anyway.
One redditor noticed that Skyrim Special Edition concurrent player count is way up. In the last 24 hours, it hit 59,109, just 10,000 shy of its 69,906 peak from when it launched almost nine years ago.
It went on sale for just $3.49 back on January 16, its lowest price ever, which may be responsible for this surge in players.
That's nothing compared to the 287,411 who played Skyrim when it first launched back in 2011, 14 years ago, but it's pretty impressive for an update that came out five years after the original.
