How these estimates are made
Black Desert
Black Desert is estimated to have 58k – 210k players a day. Around 1m – 3m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
Perfect World: Ascend
Perfect World: Ascend is estimated to have 1 – 640 players a day. Around 1k – 120k accounts have played it in total. No Steam data is published for this game, so the range is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. It is a rough band rather than a measurement.
