World of Warcraft Classic

BattleKnight is a browser-based medieval fantasy game by Gameforge, a publisher known for browser MMOs and strategy games. The game launched in the late 2000s and was once moderately popular, but like most browser titles from that era, its active community has significantly dwindled. It likely maintains a small, dedicated player base—mostly veteran fans. Given the decline in browser game popularity and its age, a daily player estimate in the low hundreds is reasonable.

World of Warcraft Classic, released in 2019 by Blizzard Entertainment, is a major MMORPG revival of the original WoW experience. The game continues to have a robust, though markedly smaller, player base than at launch, thanks to a steady cycle of classic content and expansions (like Wrath of the Lich King Classic). As an MMORPG developed and maintained by a top-tier publisher, it sees strong retention, but is several years past launch and shares its community with retail WoW. Given this, an estimate in the 200,000–250,000 daily player range is reasonable as of 2024.
