I read this and the comments and still don’t know what the fuck is considered “the top 20”.
I do reinforce the metrics by playing most games that are 10+ years old now. Though I do got my eye on Timberborn, but I’d assume that’s not the “top 20” and they are talking AAA bullshit I haven’t been interested in years because they just seem to be regurgitate repeats or copies of the same formula that worked before a AAA company just reskined it and added a $90 price tag.
Top grossing of the past week, including in-game purchases. On Steam, that’s CS2 at the top, followed by Slay the Spire and Dota 2. Presumably, they’re referring to the cross-service top 20, which is a little harder to quantify, presumably Fortnite is somewhere high on the list, but fewer people use the Epic Game Store, so idk where it will land.
The article links to to the article its talking about, which creates reports (this one is for free). My assumption is, that the report clears it up and is the main article all data is based on. However to get a copy of the report I need either put my mail address or create an account, but not sure about that one. I’m also not interested enough to do all of this.

The top 20 appears to be play time, but it would be nice if it was ever really mentioned.

It remains an open question.
