New World

DC Universe Online is a well-known superhero MMORPG released in 2011 by Daybreak Game Company and originally Sony Online Entertainment, published by WB Games. As a free-to-play MMO with the DC Comics brand and long-term console/PC support, it has maintained a modest but consistent population. However, it is over a decade old and is now considered a niche title. Current DAP is likely in the 10,000–20,000 range, with occasional peaks during new updates or events.

New World, launched by Amazon Game Studios in September 2021, saw a massive player base at launch but has since experienced typical post-launch decline. As an MMORPG with ongoing updates and a moderate community, it is likely to have around 30,000–40,000 daily active players as of 2024—primarily based on Steam charts and genre performance trends.
