Less than 24 hours after its release Fallout 4 has already set a new record on Steam amongst non-Valve games.
The game currently sits at a peak of 431,608 current players.
The previous record for peak current players for a non-Valve game was set by Grand Theft Auto V when it launched in April. It peaked at 196,700 players. However, Grand Theft Auto V doesn't actually require Steam on PC, whereas Fallout 4 does.
