Estimated Daily Players

Estimated Daily Players

~35 thousand

We estimate that Ark: Survival Evolved has currently around 35k players daily.

Ark: Survival Evolved, released in 2017, still maintains an active player base thanks to its prominent survival sandbox gameplay, mod support, and frequent updates. While it's past its peak years, it remains popular on PC and consoles due to regular events and community servers. However, being a session-based survival game with player-run servers, it does not meet the criteria for a true MMO (persistent world and massive scale interaction).

Estimated Daily Players

~700 thousand

We estimate that Minecraft has currently around 700k players daily.

Minecraft remains one of the most popular games globally, supported by an enormous multi-platform user base and an active community. Despite its age (released in 2011), its sandbox, mod-friendly structure, and continual updates from Mojang/Microsoft sustain impressive engagement. Estimates suggest hundreds of thousands to over a million daily users across all platforms, so a conservative estimate is 700,000 daily active players.
