Allods Online RU

VS

Tower of Fantasy

Allods Online is a Russian-developed MMORPG originally launched in 2009, with the Russian version supported by Mail.Ru. The game has a persistent world and large-scale multiplayer, fitting MMO criteria. While it had high popularity in its early years, activity has waned due to age (over a decade old) and the declining Russian MMO market. However, it likely maintains a small but stable core audience due to its unique style and steady content updates in the RU region.

Tower of Fantasy is a cross-platform open-world RPG released in late 2021 and published by Level Infinite (a Tencent brand), with significant investments in global marketing. Initially popular as a "Genshin Impact competitor," its player base peaked in its first year, but has since declined. It remains moderately active thanks to regular updates and events, especially in Asian markets. Given its age (over 2 years) and the usual drop-off for live-service MMOs, a conservative estimate is in the 50,000–100,000 DAP range globally.
