For comparison only Halo 3 and some CoDs announced over 1 million concurrent players in the past.

Battlefield peaked at 980k.

Another info.

No Steam game ever reached 1.2m concurrent players.

Edit - Bad info... DOTA 2 reached 1.3m on Steam.

Just give PUBG a few more weeks, but still this is incredibly impressive.

Yeap I fixed... DOTA did near 1.3m last year.

Destiny 2 will probably beat that soon.

"With franchise pre-order records broken, and record day-one performance on PlayStation Store, it's exciting to see engagement at the highest ever week-one concurrency for the franchise. Destiny 2 is off to a strong start as the #1 console gaming launch week of the year to date," said Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision. "With the PC version yet to ship, Destiny 2 sets the stage for being one of the biggest video game entertainment events of the year." For the third year in a row, Destiny is the #1 console-only game viewed on Twitch by minutes watched. Destiny 2, including its two betas, had more than 600M minutes watched on Twitch before the raid, a fan-favorite, endgame, 6-player gameplay experience started. The raid, called "Leviathan," went live for players on Sept. 13 and immediately shot to the #1 position on Twitch based on total concurrent viewers.
