How these estimates are made
DayZ
We estimate that about 430,000 people play DayZ on a typical day (most likely between 250,000 and 720,000), based on data from Nov 13, 2026. Around 13,000,000 accounts (between 8,500,000 and 20,000,000) 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.
Second Life
We estimate that about 1,800 people play Second Life on a typical day (most likely between 420 and 5,400), based on data from Nov 13, 2026. Around 330,000 accounts (between 110,000 and 760,000) have played it at some point. Second Life 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.
