Digimon Masters Online

Monster Hunter Rise

Digimon Masters Online is an MMORPG released in 2016, based on the Digimon franchise. The game is well past its initial launch phase and, while it maintains a dedicated niche community, its player base has declined significantly over the years. Its publisher is relatively unknown in Western markets, which limits reach. The persistent world and online multiplayer elements qualify it as an MMO, but expect a modest daily active player count primarily from fans of the franchise.

Monster Hunter Rise, released in 2021 by Capcom, is a popular action RPG in the Monster Hunter series. It still maintains a sizable player base due to ongoing support, expansions (like Sunbreak), and a strong community, especially in Asia. However, as it's now over two years old, daily active players have declined from launch peaks. It is not an MMO, as multiplayer sessions are instanced and do not feature a persistent world.
