We estimate that Age of Empires: Online has currently around 1.5k players daily.

Age of Empires Online originally launched in 2011 with Microsoft as publisher, but official servers shut down in 2014. A fan project, Project Celeste, has since revived and maintains the game for a small but active community. The daily player count is quite modest, as is typical for fan-run revivals of older strategy MMO-lite games, likely in the low thousands based on community activity and recent social engagement.

Estimated Daily Players

~700 thousand

We estimate that Minecraft has currently around 700k players daily.

Minecraft remains one of the most popular games globally, supported by an enormous multi-platform user base and an active community. Despite its age (released in 2011), its sandbox, mod-friendly structure, and continual updates from Mojang/Microsoft sustain impressive engagement. Estimates suggest hundreds of thousands to over a million daily users across all platforms, so a conservative estimate is 700,000 daily active players.
