Uplink
You play an Uplink Agent who makes a living by performing jobs for major corporations. Your tasks involve hacking into rival computer systems, stealing research data, sabotaging other companies, laundering money, erasing evidence, or framing innocent people. You use the money you earn to upgrade your computer systems, and to buy new software and tools. As your experience level increases you find more dangerous and profitable missions become available. You can speculate on a fully working stock market (and even influence its outcome). You can modify peoples academic or criminal records. You can divert money from bank transfers into your own accounts. You can even take part in the construction of the most deadly computer virus ever designed.

Player estimates
Nobody publishes how many people play Uplink, so these figures are modelled from the public counts on Steam, Reddit, Twitch. Each count stands in a roughly known ratio to a population — one Play rating per ~45 players, one Steam review per ~35 owners — and the estimates below combine those readings, weighted by how much each source can be trusted to speak for the whole game. Read the range as the answer and the headline as its middle.

Storyline
You are a newly assigned agent to the secretive underground hacking organisation known as "Uplink". Their motives are neutral, and have hackers that aid the unsuspecting world, and the morally bankrupt that only desire money and power over the people. Eventually a string of unusual hiring practices are made my the Andromeda Research Corporation (ARC), and the story unfolds.

Frequently asked questions
How many people play Uplink?
We estimate that about 61,000 people have played Uplink — plausibly between 22K and 170K. Around 3,000 of them play on a given day, in a range of 220 and 26K. Both figures are modelled from public counts on Steam, Reddit and Twitch rather than published by the developer, so read them as a scale rather than as a headcount.
Is Uplink still active?
Yes. Uplink is holding steady — it measured within a percent of where it was a week ago. We recheck every source daily, and the charts on this page show each platform's readings over time.
How are the Uplink player estimates worked out?
Nobody publishes player counts for mobile games, so we infer them. Each public count we can read is converted into a population using a documented ratio — roughly one Google Play rating per 45 people who played, one Steam review per 35 owners, one Discord member per 40 players — and the live counts (Steam concurrents, members online, Twitch viewers) are converted the same way into a daily figure. Those separate estimates are then averaged in proportion to how much each source can be trusted, which is why sources that disagree widen the published range instead of cancelling out. This page is built on 2 readings taken since August 8, 2026.
How big is the Uplink Reddit community?
Uplink has 868 members on Reddit, as of August 9, 2026.
When was Uplink released?
