How these estimates are made

Black Desert Online

We estimate that about 320,000 people play Black Desert Online on a typical day (most likely between 190,000 and 530,000), based on data from Nov 9, 2026. Around 5,000,000 accounts (between 3,300,000 and 7,600,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.

Darkfall: New Dawn

We estimate that about 48 people play Darkfall: New Dawn on a typical day (most likely between 11 and 140), based on data from Nov 9, 2026. Around 13,000 accounts (between 4,400 and 30,000) have played it at some point. Darkfall: New Dawn publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
