Knight Online

8BitMMO is a persistent-world indie MMO first released in 2015, focused on building and sandbox multiplayer gameplay. As a niche, indie title that is nearly a decade old, it has a much smaller active community compared to its launch, but may still retain a dedicated base of dozens to a few hundred daily players.

Knight Online is a classic MMORPG released in 2002 that still maintains a dedicated niche player base, particularly in countries like Turkey. Although its global popularity has faded, it retains daily activity due to its persistent world and ongoing updates from NTTGame. Older MMORPGs with cult followings often remain in the 10,000–30,000 daily player range unless they have shut down, and recent trends show Knight Online remains active.
