Pathfinder: Kingmaker

C21: Steel Battle Chronicles is an online action RPG from CyberStep released in 2006. Given its age (over 15 years), niche publisher, and the lack of widespread recognition outside of Japan, it is likely to have a very small but dedicated player base. Its live services seem primarily targeted at a Japanese audience. Unless supported by recent re-releases or major updates, games of this profile generally retain a few hundred to a few thousand daily players.

Pathfinder: Kingmaker is a single-player tactical RPG released in 2018 by Owlcat Games and published by Deep Silver. While it was well-received and has a loyal fanbase, it is not an MMO, and its playerbase has declined over time since release. Estimated active daily players are low, likely a few hundred globally, primarily from new players and ongoing interest in the Pathfinder franchise.
