Artifact

Angeldust is a small-scale indie open-world action-adventure RPG released in 2015. It has some MMO-like features, but with no major publisher or promotional events and being several years post-launch, its active player base is likely quite low, perhaps in the low hundreds daily. Indie open-world multiplayer games tend to have niche but steady follower bases if they offer persistent worlds and cross-platform play.

Artifact, developed and published by Valve, launched in 2018 as a digital collectible card game. Despite Valve's reputation, the game quickly lost players due to its controversial monetization and gameplay reception, and official updates largely ceased. The player base is now extremely low, with only a handful of daily matches played as of recent years.
