Blue Protocol launched in 2023 with Bandai Namco and Amazon Games backing, generating initial interest as a new anime-styled MMORPG. However, player retention has struggled in both Japan and NA/EU, with declining trends post-launch and mixed reviews on content updates. As a persistent-world online RPG featuring large-scale multiplayer, it qualifies as an MMO, but current daily active players likely hover around 20,000 globally given the drop-off since release.

Estimated Daily Players

~1.5 thousand

We estimate that Infestation: The New Beginning has currently around 1.5k players daily.

"Infestation: The New Beginning" is a rebranding and continuation of the original "Infestation: Survivor Stories" (formerly known as "The War Z"), which launched in 2012. As a survival sandbox shooter with open-world elements, its player base has declined over the years due to age, competition, and a mixed reputation. However, the game maintains a small, dedicated following, typical for niche survival MMOs this old.
