Age of Empires: Online was originally released in 2011 and officially shut down in 2014, but the game lives on through the fan-run Project Celeste servers. As a niche fan revival, its daily player base is small—likely in the low thousands—sustained by a dedicated but limited community and not benefiting from mainstream publisher support. Its activity is well below peak original levels.
