World of Warcraft Classic

CityBattle: Virtual Earth is a relatively obscure team-based online shooter with science fiction themes, released in 2018. It has never attained major popularity in the West and has a very niche player base, with no publisher or developer of major repute listed. Considering its age (over 5 years), lack of major support, and absence from mainstream coverage, it's likely to have a very low but not zero daily active player base, mostly from dedicated fans.

World of Warcraft Classic, released in 2019 by Blizzard Entertainment, is a major MMORPG revival of the original WoW experience. The game continues to have a robust, though markedly smaller, player base than at launch, thanks to a steady cycle of classic content and expansions (like Wrath of the Lich King Classic). As an MMORPG developed and maintained by a top-tier publisher, it sees strong retention, but is several years past launch and shares its community with retail WoW. Given this, an estimate in the 200,000–250,000 daily player range is reasonable as of 2024.
