What is the latest observed Steam activity for Half-Life 2 RTX?

How much follower and Twitch attention does Half-Life 2 RTX have?

Half-Life 2 RTX currently has about 339 tracked Steam followers as of 29 January 2026 - 00:00:00 UTC. SteamPulse is not treating the current Twitch number as authoritative because the Twitch category for this app is not resolved yet or the Twitch API credentials are unavailable.
