Ark: Survival Evolved

BattleTech: Flashpoint is an expansion for the 2018 turn-based strategy title BattleTech by Harebrained Schemes and published by Paradox. The core game had moderate popularity at launch within tactical/strategy circles. As a single-player-focused game with only limited multiplayer features and no persistent world, its active player base has declined substantially over the years. Estimated current daily players are low, primarily from a small, dedicated fan base.

Ark: Survival Evolved is a popular survival sandbox game released in 2017 and available on nearly all platforms. Its peak was several years ago, but it maintains a stable community thanks to official and community servers, modding, and occasional event content. While numbers have declined since launch, the game still sees tens of thousands of daily players across PC and consoles, especially due to its ongoing updates and active mod scene. However, it is not an MMO as it does not feature a single, large-scale persistent world—servers are capped and players are sharded.
