City of Heroes was a well-known superhero MMORPG launched in 2004 and shut down officially in 2012, but an active community revived it through private servers (notably Homecoming). Activity on these private servers has stabilized, with daily active players generally in the low thousands range (estimated 5,000–10,000 daily as of 2024 based on community server stats and ongoing niche interest). As an MMORPG with a persistent world, it retains a loyal core community but no longer draws mainstream MMO crowds.

Estimated Daily Players

~300 thousand

We estimate that Black Desert Mobile has currently around 300k players daily.

Black Desert Mobile, developed by Pearl Abyss, is the mobile adaptation of the successful Black Desert MMORPG series. Launched in late 2019, it retains a large international fanbase, especially in Asia. As a well-supported, visually impressive mobile MMO with regular updates, it sustains strong daily player numbers, though not as high as its global launch peak. Based on industry trends and similar mobile MMORPGs, an estimate of 300,000 daily active players is reasonable for 2024.
