Valve Launches Steam Replay 2025
Valve has launched Steam Replay 2025, its annual recap feature that summarizes users' gaming activity on the platform throughout the year. The tool became available starting December 16, 2025, allowing Steam users to review their playtime, achievements, and habits from January 1 to December 14. Accessible via a prominent banner on the Steam storefront or directly through the website, the recap provides both personalized insights and comparisons to the broader user base.
For individual users, Steam Replay offers a detailed breakdown of gaming patterns. It lists the total number of games played, hours spent on top titles, monthly activity, and the most-played genres. Users can also view achievements unlocked, the longest consecutive play streaks, and breakdowns by device, such as time spent on the Steam Deck. The feature categorizes playtime by game age, showing percentages for new releases, recent titles, and classics. Comparisons to the median Steam user highlight personal deviations; for instance, the average user played four games this year, unlocked 11 achievements, and maintained a six-day play streak.
