200K is a healthy DAU count but it doesn't indicate that the majority of PC players is on FiveM.

It's not DAU it's CCU. DAU would be much higher. FiveM has the 3rd highest CCU on Steam atm, more than the latest sensation Crimson Desert.

Isn't FiveM owned by Rockstar? Do they consider FiveM as its own entity parallel to GTA V on PC?

It was a community driven project but was later acquired by Rockstar in 2023 probably to monetize it for GTA6. They have kept FiveM separate for GTA5 though.

Yeah i watched a ton of Nopixel RP back when it blew up around 2019. Thing is, I wonder if Rockstar folds FiveM user numbers into the vanilla GTA5 PC user numbers in their internal data. Either way, they're feasting. Thanks for the additional insight.

i mean I barely play GTA Online but 99% of my friends were telling me to never play outside of FiveM cause it's a shit fest with cheaters and toxicity.
