Enlisted

AwakeMUD is a recent MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) with a fantasy and sci-fi setting, released at the end of 2021. MUDs generally have small niche audiences, given that this is not a modern graphical MMO and has no major publisher or developer name attached. Interest in MUDs is low compared to mainstream online RPGs, so daily active players are likely to be quite limited—typically in the tens or low hundreds even soon after launch. Given its continued operation and niche interest, estimating around 50 daily players is reasonable.

Enlisted is a free-to-play squad-based World War II shooter developed by Darkflow Software and published by Gaijin Entertainment. Launched in 2020 and available on multiple platforms, its player base is supported by ongoing updates and events promoted by Gaijin. However, as a niche shooter (and not a top-tier AAA franchise), its daily active players likely peak in the tens of thousands, not hundreds of thousands. The game has moderate popularity among enthusiasts of realistic shooters but does not reach the scale of major titles like War Thunder or Battlefield. Players per match are capped and it lacks the persistent world of a true MMO.
