How these estimates are made

Aion 2

We estimate that about 950,000 people play Aion 2 on a typical day (most likely between 680,000 and 1,300,000), based on data from Nov 8, 2026. Around 1,200,000 accounts (between 910,000 and 1,500,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.

World of Warcraft

We estimate that about 32,000 people play World of Warcraft on a typical day (most likely between 7,300 and 94,000), based on data from Nov 8, 2026. Around 1,800,000 accounts (between 630,000 and 4,200,000) have played it at some point. World of Warcraft publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
