Valve named the best games on Steam for 2019

Valve has published Steam charts for 2019 in the categories “Best Selling,” “Best New,” and “Best Early Access Projects,” as well as “Leaders in Concurrent Players.”

So, the best-selling games on Steam steel Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (meaning in-game sales), Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice and Destiny 2. It is noteworthy that Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice (released March 21) won Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2019. Destiny 2 was released on Steam only on October 1, which did not prevent it from entering the top three.
