What do they mean, concurrent players? Did they turn it into a multiplayer game?

Steam has statistics for how many people are actively playing any particular game, regardless of how the game's multiplayer works, if any.

Ah I thought they f-ed us over and made it a multiplayer mandatory game.

I didn't want to follow it before it was out, waiting a bit before I jump in.
