Popular online gaming platform Steam recently passed a massive milestone, boasting a new all-time high for online players with over 38 million users online. Since Valve originally launched Steam in September of 2003, the gaming platform has grown into one of the most-used gaming services and online marketplaces in the world. Steam's catalog boasts over 100,000 games in the U.S. with the service standing as the largest online gaming platform on PC, beating out competitors like the Epic Games Store.
