After breaking a peak of 16,411,769 concurrent players in June 2025, Grow a Garden, surpassing Fortnite’s once-seemingly unattainable record of 15.3 million concurrent users, Roblox’s hit title went on to surpass its own record, nearing 22 million concurrent users in July 2025.
This achievement by the Roblox farming simulator greatly exceeds the combined all-time peaks of concurrent players for the top five titles on Steam, which are, at the time of writing, according to SteamDB: PUBG: Battlegrounds with 3,257,248 peak concurrent players; Black Myth: Wukong with 2,415,714; Palworld with 2,101,867; Counter-Strike 2 with 1,862,531; and Monster Hunter Wilds with 1,384,608, totaling 11,021,968.
As reported by Gaming.News in July 2025, Grow a Garden became the reason for a 60% increase in the number of Roblox titles with over 50,000 concurrent players. It seems that the hit farming simulator also made an impressive contribution to Roblox’s recently achieved all-time high of over 32 million concurrent users, which was declared in the Q2 2025 Shareholder Letter.
Launched in March 2025, Grow a Garden is playable on all the platforms where Roblox is presented, including Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, both macOS and Windows PCs, PlayStation 5, Android and iOS smartphones, Meta Quest VR, and multiple PC VR headsets like Oculus Rift or HTC Vive.
Grow a Garden‘s gameplay offers its players the core of virtual gardening, from planting seeds to growing crops and breeding animals. The title’s major feature is that plants in the game grow even when players are offline, motivating them to return and see what has evolved during their absence.
Notably, shortly after release Grow a Garden was bought by Janzen Madsen, founder of New Zealand’s Splitting Point Studios. The title generates revenue from sales of in-game items that can be purchased with either the Grow a Garden’s own currency, Sheckles, or Roblox’s currency, Robux.
