CarX Drift Racing Online

Age of Empires Online: Celeste Fan Project is a fan-run revival of the original Age of Empires Online, which was discontinued by Microsoft. As a community project launched in 2017, it maintains a niche but active RTS player base, mostly composed of dedicated fans. While not as popular as mainstream RTS games, its weekend activity peaks and ongoing support likely keep daily active players in the low thousands range. It is not run by major publishers but has support from a dedicated fan community.

CarX Drift Racing Online is a well-known drifting and racing simulator released in 2017. While it still maintains a loyal niche community, its age, genre (racing/simulator), and focus on multiplayer sessions (rather than persistent world MMO structure) suggest a smaller steady player base, likely around 8,000 daily active players across all platforms. The game is supported by a dedicated fanbase but isn't a mainstream blockbuster or MMO.
