I don’t believe any estimates unless pulled directly from a publicly available API from the devs themselves or a storefront if available . I wouldn’t put too much into it when most steam sales estimates have ridiculously wide margins or error.
Steam estimate used to be very reliable when Steam API allowed to get the exactly number of player…

Sadly Steam closed that API call and after that it become very inaccurate.

I usually reflect on 3 chart types now for a general and pretty thorough industry snapshot. Steam concurrent, XBL most played, and the new Top 10 in Your Country on PlayStation. For a number of reasons I think those in particular are the best information available to us. In the case for Starfield the Windows Store most popular chart is also relevant due to gamespass.

Example - Current Top 10 in your Country on PlayStation (viewable in both console os and mobile app).

1. Baldur’s gate
2. Madden 24
3. Fortnite
4. NBA 2k24
5. Warzone
6. GTA Online
7. Rainbow Six Siege
8. Armored Core
9. Destiny 2
10. Texas Chainsaw Massacre

PlayStation charts are the most interesting because I believe they are measuring both player engagement and game interactions such as purchases and pre-orders based on observing them for a bit.
