Active Worlds is one of the oldest 3D virtual worlds, released in 1995. It peaked in the late '90s but is now considered niche, with a small but loyal community. The game's age and minimal recent visibility or updates suggest only a handful of active daily users remain.

Estimated Daily Players

~300

We estimate that FreeSO has currently around 300 players daily.

FreeSO is a fan-made revival of The Sims Online, released in 2017. As a niche sandbox/simulation MMO project with a dedicated but small community, its daily active players are likely low—probably in the low hundreds. The title appeals mainly to nostalgia-driven players and simulation fans, and lacks major publisher support.
