This list recognizes games that have built strong Early Access communities and transitioned into commercially successful releases during 2019. These are measured by revenue earned during 2019 (during Early Access and after full release).

While the other lists are based on commercial success, our Most Played list highlights games based solely on player count.

In order to highlight games that have built large player bases, we've excluded brief spikes in player counts due to things like giveaways and free weekends.
