Marbles on Stream

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.

Marbles on Stream is a viewer-interactive racing and simulation game popular with Twitch streamers. While it saw peak activity shortly after launch (2018), its player base is now niche, sustained mainly by streamers and their communities. As it does not generally attract large independent play outside streaming events, estimated daily active players are modest, usually in the low thousands.
