How these estimates are made

8 Realms

Not enough data collected to estimate this game yet.

Lost Ark

Lost Ark is estimated to have 18k – 63k players a day. Around 3m – 7m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
