Arma II: DayZ was a highly influential mod released in 2012 that sparked the survival multiplayer trend.

Minecraft is an exceptionally popular sandbox game with a strong legacy since its release in 2011. Its cross-platform availability, enormous modding community, and consistent updates contribute to a large, active player base even over a decade later. While it’s not a traditional MMO (no single persistent shared world or servers holding thousands of simultaneous players together), its server model supports substantial multiplayer activity.
