ArcheAge is a well-known sandbox MMORPG launched in 2013. While it initially drew strong interest due to its open world and sandbox systems, its player base has shrunk over the years, in part due to controversial monetization decisions and competition. Recent trends and community figures suggest the game retains a loyal but relatively small population, with most activity centered in a few regions. It is clearly an MMO based on its persistent world and large-scale multiplayer interaction.
