How these estimates are made

Elite: Dangerous

We estimate that about 62,000 people play Elite: Dangerous on a typical day (most likely between 37,000 and 110,000), based on data from Nov 8, 2026. Around 3,500,000 accounts (between 2,300,000 and 5,300,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.

The Cenozoic Era

We estimate that about 130 people play The Cenozoic Era on a typical day (most likely between 29 and 380), based on data from Nov 8, 2026. Around 45,000 accounts (between 35,000 and 57,000) have played it at some point. The Cenozoic Era is on Steam, but Steam covers only part of its players, so the estimate also draws on the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
