Across the 140 games we track, the busiest hour of the week is Saturday around 5 PM UTC and the quietest is Thursday around 6 AM UTC. Sunday is the busiest day overall and Thursday the quietest. Each game is counted as a share of its own busiest hour, so the big games do not drown out the small ones.
Darker means busier. Each square is the average player count that hour as a percentage of each game's own peak hour.

Saturday around 5 PM UTC is the busiest hour we see across the games we track. Converted to local time that is the late afternoon and evening in most of Europe and the Americas, which is when most players are out of school.
Thursday around 6 AM UTC is the quietest hour overall. Quiet hours mean shorter queues, less lag and a better chance at timed or limited in-game events. Individual games differ, so check the game's own page for its quietest hour.
No. Most games follow this rhythm because most players share a daily routine, but a game with players mainly in one part of the world can be hours out of step. Every game we track has its own hour-by-hour page.
Worked out from 130,226 player counts we took ourselves. These are averages of samples, so treat them as a good guess rather than an official figure.
