. According to the Fallout 4 Steam Charts, they're averaging around 40,000 active players a day on PC alone. Whenever new content arrives it can blast up to 75,000. That's also not including people playing offline and playing on the Xbox One and PS4, which would mean there's at least several hundred thousand Fallout 4 players engaged with the game everyday.
For The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim, _ the numbers are roughly the same on Steam Charts. They fluctuate on a daily basis from 30,000 up to 70,000 depending on what mods are released or whether or not some new content is available. Again, this also doesn't include people playing offline. In the case of _Skyrim, unlike Fallout 4, it not only has an Xbox 360 and PS3 audience but thanks to the new Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim Special Edition there's also the added contingent of Xbox One and PS4 users boosting the engagement numbers. So it's quite possible that they really could be maintaining millions of engaged users on a daily basis across the various iterations of both Fallout 4 and Skyrim.
Unfortunately, we don't have the console numbers to cross reference this data with. What we do know is that the PC versions of both games have managed to sell tens of millions of units.

If it ain’t Halflife 3 I don’t want to hear about it.
Used to be daily or 5-6 times per week but finished both Fallout 3 and New Vegas for probably the last playthrough both heavily modded.
I have never played any Elder Scrolls but I recently purchased Skyrim Special Edition due to my brand new super gaming pc I just got up and running. The game is upgraded to better function with 64-bit OS and more memory. I play these games modded up quite a bit and I have already got it up and running with Nexus Mod Manager and three mods already. I’ll continue building up the mods until it gets very immersive and challenging probably 50+ mods. I’m going with an Orc Warrior first time thru.
Once I start, I’ll probably be playing Skyrim: SpecEd daily or near daily.
I am doing both daggerfall and oblivion again a little here and there. I still think daggerfall is the best in the series, It certainly was years and years ahead of its time when it came out, and they could have done a little more with some of the skills (like the languages), but for 1996 it was epic. though the graphics in skyrim were out of this world, and I did enjoy the game, I really think they dumbed down all of the skills, factions and quests, and even the mythos, I don’t really consider it an RPG anymore, just an adventure game, though still an impressive one.
I still have my dice!
Wow, that is crazy. Skyrim has been out for years now, 2011 to be exact.
Impressive work!
Nice!
Thanks, I’ll tell him.
