Data Notes

GameDiscoverCo data is designed for market research and directional analysis. Use it to compare games, evaluate trends, and form hypotheses, not as audited financial reporting.

Estimates​

Revenue, sales, player counts, active users, and similar metrics are estimates based on multiple data sources. Treat them as directional rather than exact actuals.

Platform Coverage​

The MCP server covers Steam, Xbox, PlayStation, and Nintendo Switch. Steam has the richest metadata, including reviews, wishlists, concurrent users, tags, followers, price history, and review-language data.

Freshness​

Most market metrics update daily. Concurrent user data updates more frequently, and historical CCU data can be hourly depending on the metric and availability.

Identifiers​

  • appid is Steam's game identifier.
  • gdcoId is GameDiscoverCo's unified identifier for a game across supported platforms.

If a cross-platform query returns no data, first search for the game with search_games so the assistant can identify the correct gdcoId.

Availability​

Very small games, newly announced titles, unreleased titles, or games without enough public signal may have limited data. Some metrics are Steam-only, while others are cross-platform.
