AQ First Contact is a strategy game released in 2019 by indie developer Seven Point Red. As a multi-platform title with modest social presence and no major publisher, it likely peaked early and now maintains a small core audience. It does not have the hallmarks of an MMO (no evidence of persistent world or large-scale multiplayer).
Estimated Daily Players
~100 thousand
We estimate that Rust has currently around 100k players daily.
Rust is a well-known multiplayer survival game, released in 2018 by Facepunch Studios. It maintains high popularity on platforms like Steam due to frequent updates, Twitch presence, and a strong PvP-focused community. It typically sees tens of thousands of concurrent players, so 100,000 daily players is a reasonable estimate for 2024.
