Ember Sword is a highly anticipated indie MMORPG developed by Bright Star Studios, frequently discussed in the MMO community. As of now, it is either in limited open testing or early access and has not fully released, which drastically limits daily active players. Given its testing phase and community engagement, a conservative estimate would be 1,000–2,000 daily players participating in playtests and early builds.
Estimated Daily Players
~15 thousand
We estimate that The Sandbox has currently around 15k players daily.
The Sandbox is a blockchain-based virtual world and sandbox game that peaked in popularity during the NFT/metaverse boom around 2021-2022. Activity has dropped significantly since then, partly due to a wider decline in interest in crypto gaming and metaverse titles. It is still supported by Animoca Brands and has a steady, niche user base, but the current daily player count is relatively low compared to its peak. It does offer massively multiplayer elements but most spaces are instanced or event-driven, not a single persistent shared world.
