Atlantica Online VS Ragnarok X: Next Generation

Atlantica Online is a turn-based MMORPG originally released in 2008. It was once moderately popular, but due to its age (over 15 years old), niche gameplay, and switching publishers, its active playerbase has sharply declined. As of 2024, it retains a small, loyal community, likely in the low thousands daily.

Ragnarok X: Next Generation is a mobile MMORPG released in 2021, leveraging the long-standing Ragnarok IP. While its initial launch saw very strong numbers, the game has experienced typical post-launch decline, with a decrease in Western interest but a still-active presence in Southeast Asia. As a mobile MMO, engagement is bolstered by daily events, but three years past release, a daily player count around 35,000 is likely, mostly from its most dedicated regions. The persistent world, large player hubs, and widespread multiplayer events qualify it as a true MMO.
