As 2023 unfolds, Battlefield 4, despite subsequent installments, continues to attract thousands of players daily. Part of a franchise that has been setting the pace for large-scale FPS games for decades, Battlefield 4 has not only stood the test of time but continues to thrive, surprising many within the gaming community​​.
Battlefield 4 Current Player Count
The latest data for July 2023 reveals an average player count of 1,069 for Battlefield 4, a slight drop of 4% from May’s average of 1,115. Although the numbers have slightly decreased, they consistently stay within the 1,000-2,000 range, which is impressive, especially considering the release of Battlefield 2042​​.
Battlefield 4 Historical Peak and Subsequent Decline
Back in October 2021, the hype around Battlefield 2042 caused a remarkable surge in Battlefield 4’s player count. The game experienced an unprecedented peak with 12,342 simultaneous players on Steam. However, by the end of November 2021, the average player count had dipped to 2,237. Despite this decline, maintaining a four-figure player count is a commendable achievement for a decade-old game that no longer receives new conten​t​.

On the other hand, Battlefield V continues to maintain a solid daily player count, with around 7,000 gamers enjoying the game daily. Some players evidently prefer the features and gameplay of Battlefield V over the newer installments, proving that the older Battlefield games still have a significant place in the gaming world​​.
In conclusion, Battlefield 4, despite being an older game in the franchise, continues to retain a strong player base. Its ongoing popularity and player retention are a testament to the game’s quality and enduring appeal. As we move further into 2023, it will be interesting to see how the player counts for Battlefield 4 and its newer counterparts evolve.
