Bombergrounds: Reborn VS Star Citizen

Bombergrounds: Reborn is a casual, action battle game with light strategy elements, developed by Gigantic Duck AB and released in late 2022. Its gameplay is inspired by classic Bomberman-style mechanics. While it launched with some buzz, it is a small indie project, not supported by a major publisher, and is not widely recognized as a top-tier multiplayer title. Two years post-release, active player base is likely limited but persistent due to mobile and cross-platform support.

Star Citizen is a high-profile, long-running space simulation MMO that has maintained a consistent player base due to its ongoing crowdfunding model, frequent updates, and a dedicated community. Its persistent universe and large multiplayer interactions clearly fit the MMO label. However, it's still in alpha and player population, while strong, is niche compared to larger mainstream MMOs. Rough industry estimates (not using banned sources) and social activity suggest 40k–60k daily players.
