Valve has secretly come up with a new game, Deadlock, which takes a MOBA-style approach to the shooter genre. But how many people are playing it?

Like Marvel Rivals, Deadlock is a third-person shooter featuring many characters with unique abilities and ultimates. While the game is not available on the Steam library, several leaks from players in the closed alpha have shown off Deadlock's gameplay, with one leak suggesting that the game has already amassed over 200,000 players.
If you're wondering how many people are playing Deadlock, here's some information about the number of players.
Deadlock has been averaging over 20,000 players per day since August 13th, with an all-time high of 23,327 players on August 14th. The recent increase in numbers can be attributed to Valve allowing participating players to send out invites to their Steam friends to join the playtest. As Valve allows more players to participate in the closed alpha, we can now expect Deadlock’s player count to increase in the coming weeks.
