Delta Force Hits New Concurrent Steam Player Count Ahead of…

Delta Force reached a new peak of 198,735 concurrent players on Steam ahead of its PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S release scheduled for August 19. The player resurgence comes following the recent Delta Force massive summer update, which brought a whole bunch of new content for players.

Delta Force is a popular tactical FPS released for PC and mobile earlier in 2025 following an early access period. While the series began back in 1998, it hadn’t seen a new entry since 2009's Delta Force: Xtreme 2—until the new game launched its open beta in December 2024. While the new Delta Force has struggled with its Steam rating (currently sitting at “Mixed”), it has been quite successful on PC and mobile, attracting hundreds of thousands of players after its release. And now, players have flooded the game following the recent huge update.
