Valve have released Steam Replay for 2025, showing off some interesting stats about your gaming and how it stacks up against everyone on Steam.

Interestingly, this year they note that only 14% of gaming was "spent by all Steam users in new releases (games released in 2025)". That's actually down a single digit percentage from last year, but continues to show that with the onslaught of over 19,000 games from 2025 that a lot of people continue playing through their older games. According to the stats 44% of playtime from all Steam users were for releases from the last 1-7 years, and 40% playtime from all Steam users was spent on releases from 8 or more years ago.

Valve's stats don't include time spent in offline mode or when you're without internet.


Mine has been quite skewed back to Desktop Linux due to ARC Raiders, Dune: Awakening, and Overwatch 2.

What did you spend the most time on across 2025?

Check out your own on Steam Replay.

Quoting: 1xokMaybe on some visit? I don't have Windows either, but I played at a relative's.
Almost no one in the family has a Windows PC. There is an old, half-broken laptop. I wouldn't enter my data there either.

In my case I think it's more likely that Steam detects Proton as Windows in some cases.

71% of my playtime this year was RimWorld (36%), Team Fortress 2 (23%), and Stellaris (12%), all of which are over a decade old*. 7% of my playtime was games released this year, which I think might all be from Ark Nova (the digital version).

*RimWorld only released on Steam in 2018 so Steam apparently counts it as "recent" (1–7 years old) rather than "classic" (8+ years old) in the breakdown, but I had pre-alpha access from the original Kickstarter in 2013 and was playing it years before it officially released.

Finally checked mine and found that you don't even get a platform breakdown if you only ever played on one platform. Understandable, I guess.
I've got 90% play time on Linux, 7% on Steamdeck, and 4% on windows from testing my friends graphics cards for defects and some ACE anti-cheat games my friends wanted to tryout. Wish Steam would tell me how may hours I played for each game so I could compare to my PlayStation numbers. For PC I have Smite 2 a 34%, Monster Hunter Wilds at 19% (158 hours on steam, 128hr in save file), 6% Deadlock, 4% Borderlands, 3% Marvel Rivals. My Steamdeck numbers are skewed since I only really used it 2 weeks this years for real the rest is just me seeing how things worked on it not playing so I'll just put the only 2 games i played for real on it Baldur's Gate 3 about 80% and Terminull about 20%. And for PlayStation I had Stellar blade at 66% with 142 hours, Clair Obscur at 33% with 72 hours, Final Fantasy VII Remake 1% 2.5 hours I didn't include the games I effectively used as Screen savers.

Another one percenter (new releases) here. Guess i am an old man of habit. :)
I really lile this feature. While i get that this is a bummer for people that only play offline, it shows that they don´t collect any data then. Which is something i really like. They easily could have snuck in a service that tracks things offline.
