Armored Warfare

AFK Journey, developed by Farlight Games, is a recently released cross-platform fantasy idle RPG with gacha and adventure elements. The game has generated significant hype post-launch, especially among mobile and casual strategy communities, and leverages the popularity of its predecessor, AFK Arena. Recent mobile downloads and community activity suggest strong daily engagement, likely in the hundreds of thousands. Given its cross-platform support and gacha monetization, retention is high at launch. However, it does not qualify as an MMO despite some open-world and multiplayer features, as it lacks a persistent large-scale shared world.

Armored Warfare is a tank warfare MMO released in 2015 by My.com and originally developed by Obsidian Entertainment. While it once aimed to compete with World of Tanks, its player base has diminished significantly over the years due to competition and limited updates. As an older, niche title without a strong ongoing esports or content pipeline, its daily active player count is now quite low, primarily sustained by a small, dedicated audience.
