How many people are playing X-Plane 12 right now?

Sample too small: no sampled review with a playtime on file, 30 needed before the figures are written. The reviews poller samples each game’s reviews in turn; the funnel job reads them daily.

No funnel yet

X-Plane 12 lists no achievements on its store page, so there is no unlock share to order and no funnel to draw.

Every game How this is computedNot sampled

X-Plane 12 is not in the Twitch ring: viewers are sampled every 10 minutes for the hundred most played games and every watched game (351 games since 3 Sep 2026), so there is no viewer series to set against its players yet. Watching the game adds it to the ring.

When X-Plane 12 is busiest

How this is computedHourly sample 35 minutes ago

Needs four weeks of hourly samples, 2 on file (60 hourly rows since 5 Sep 2026, 08:00 UTC). The weekly activity job writes the profile once 4 distinct weeks fall inside its 8-week window; the fourth week of samples begins on 21 Sep 2026, so the heatmap can appear with the job’s first run after that.

Every game How this is computedCurves computed 46 hours ago

X-Plane 12’s monthly averages begin in Sep 2022, more than two months after its 17 Dec 2022 release, so its series is not a launch curve and the job leaves it off rather than measure from the wrong start. The cohort’s own curve is shown.

The band is the 25th to 75th percentile share of the launch level among simulation games at each month since launch, with their median as the line; a game joins a curve after 6 months of averages. Recomputed weekly, last on 5 Sep 2026. How this is computed. Data by SteamPeaks.com.
