Estimated Daily Players
Estimated Daily Players
We estimate that Dune: Awakening has currently around 14k players daily.
As of late August 2025, Dune: Awakening had approximately 14,000 concurrent players, reflecting a significant decline from its peak of over 189,000 concurrent players shortly after launch in June 2025. This decrease is attributed to factors such as player burnout, game design issues, and technical problems. Despite these challenges, the developers remain optimistic, citing strong player retention and a 10-year development roadmap that includes plans to explore new planets and regions within the Dune universe.

Estimated Daily Players
We estimate that Heat and Run has currently around 200 players daily.
Heat and Run is an indie MOBA/platform shooter hybrid released in late 2022. As an indie title without major publisher backing, it likely never reached high player counts and has probably declined since launch. MOBAs from small developers often struggle to find large, sustained audiences. Based on its age, indie status, lack of major promotional impact, and typical genre trends, a small but dedicated community is likely, with daily players estimated in the low hundreds.
