How these estimates are made

ArcheWorld

ArcheWorld is estimated to have 8 – 4k players a day. Around 5k – 490k accounts have played it in total. No Steam data is published for this game, so the range is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. It is a rough band rather than a measurement.

The Lord of the Rings Online

The Lord of the Rings Online is estimated to have 3k – 12k players a day. Around 410k – 1m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
