How these estimates are made
Ark: Survival Ascended
Ark: Survival Ascended is estimated to have 77k – 270k players a day. Around 2m – 4m 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.
Hero of Aethric
Hero of Aethric is estimated to have 37 – 17k players a day. Around 16k – 2m 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.
