Sky: Children of the Light

Dungeons & Dragons Online is a classic MMORPG released in 2006. Though it peaked in its early years, it retains a small but stable fanbase due to the D&D brand, ongoing updates, and niche appeal among classic MMO fans. Its MMO status is clear, and current daily active player estimates are conservative due to the game's age and low mainstream presence.

Sky: Children of the Light is a cross-platform, socially-oriented adventure title from ThatGameCompany (creators of Journey) and published by NetEase. Launched in 2019 and consistently receiving seasonal content updates, it maintains a strong, dedicated mobile and console player base, especially in Asian markets. Its unique multiplayer instance system enables shared world experiences but does not reach the persistent, large-scale MMO threshold. Daily active players are estimated around 150,000 due to ongoing popularity and global releases.
