How these estimates are made

DayZ

DayZ is estimated to have 140k – 500k players a day. Around 5m – 13m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.

Echoes of Extinction

Echoes of Extinction is estimated to have 18 – 9k players a day. Around 9k – 900k accounts have played it in total. No Steam data is published for this game, so the range is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. It is a rough band rather than a measurement.
