A 60 year old videogame just hit its highest player count ever on Steam and I'm pretty sure it's because people are pirating Schedule 1
At time of writing, SteamDB's concurrent player ranking is led by the usual suspects: Counter-Strike 2 is commanding its expected lead with more than a million players while Dota 2 and the breakout drug-selling sim Schedule 1 follow behind. A bit farther down the list, however, is an unexpected title that hit its all-time peak player count just two days ago: It's called Spacewar, and in all likelihood, very few of its current 100,000 players are actually playing it.
How? Well, piracy, probably.
