How these estimates are made

City of Heroes

We estimate that about 1,900 people play City of Heroes on a typical day (most likely between 430 and 5,500), based on data from Nov 13, 2026. Around 330,000 accounts (between 120,000 and 770,000) have played it at some point. City of Heroes publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.

Throne and Liberty

We estimate that about 45,000 people play Throne and Liberty on a typical day (most likely between 26,000 and 75,000), based on data from Nov 13, 2026. Around 3,600,000 accounts (between 2,300,000 and 5,500,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.
