Space Station 13

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.

Space Station 13 is a cult classic sandbox multiplayer game originally released in 2003, with various community servers running different versions. Despite its age, it maintains a small but active playerbase due to its unique gameplay and strong, niche community. Across all servers and codebases, the estimated daily player count ranges from 2,000–5,000, so approximately 4,000 daily players is a reasonable estimate in 2024.
