Fallout 76

Champions Ascension is an indie mix of hack-and-slash, MOBA, and open-world elements released in 2022 by Rough House Games. While it has unique mechanics and active development, it's a niche project with a smaller publisher, limited mainstream visibility, and lacks major streamer presence. Indie multiplayer games of this type generally have several hundred daily players at most unless they break out into wider popularity.

Fallout 76 is a 2018 online open-world survival RPG from Bethesda. After a rough launch, the game's player base stabilized thanks to consistent content updates and improvements. While its concurrent popularity never matched leading MMOs, its cross-platform presence and support allow it to maintain a smaller but steady loyal community. As of 2024, daily active players are estimated around 30,000–40,000 based on public sentiment, recent expansions, and visible in-game activity, particularly after updates or events.
