Over the last 30 days, CS:GO was played for 526.48 million hours, 71.5 percent more than Dota 2, the next most popular game on the platform. It also peaked at 1.2 million concurrent players last month, 57 percent higher than Dota 2, which still peaked at an impressive 764,490 players in January 2023.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, Call of Duty\u00ae: Modern Warfare\u00ae II | Warzone\u2122 2.0 slid down the list of most popular games on Steam, falling from No. 6 to No. 7 after another lackluster month.

To counteract the downturn in players, the video game publisher has introduced a new map, Ashika Island, for the month of February.<\/p>\n
Call of Duty also hopes to attract players by bringing back one of its most popular modes. Resurgence mode will return with the start of Season 2 on February 15.<\/p>\n
