According to SteamDB data, the user who owns over 40,000 copies is SonixLegend , a Shanghai-based user. At the time of writing, he owns 40,033 copies of the game and 22,138 DLC copies. SonixLegend's total game purchases are estimated to be worth approximately $640,000 (approximately ¥96 million), but by taking advantage of sales and other factors, his actual purchases appear to have been reduced to $248,810 (approximately ¥37.3 million).



This is the world's first unlocked 'Game Collector' achievement badge.



To unlock the 'Game Collector' achievement, SonixLegend must own over 40,000 games, but this does not include games with shoddy assets known as '

shovelware ' or free-to-play games. IT news site Tom's Hardware reports that, including these excluded titles, SonixLegend owns over 97,000 games.

SonixLegend is not just a collector, but also a gamer. He has spent over 550 hours playing the 2010 shooter 'Alien Swarm,' but since it's free-to-play, it doesn't qualify for the 'Game Collector' badge. Furthermore, SonixLegend claims to have unlocked all achievements in 35 games.



SonixLegend estimates that if he were to complete the top 2,500 games in his collection, it would take him about seven years of continuous play 24/7.

According to SteamDB, the second most owned gamer has 39,513 games, and the third place has 36,662. To make it into the top 100, you need to own at least 19,000 games. If you want to unlock the 'Game Collector' achievement, you should definitely aim to be ranked in the top 100.
