How these estimates are made
Escape from Tarkov
We estimate that about 480,000 people play Escape from Tarkov on a typical day (most likely between 280,000 and 810,000), based on data from Nov 10, 2026. Around 4,000,000 accounts (between 2,600,000 and 6,100,000) 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.
Mekanism
We estimate that about 360 people play Mekanism on a typical day (most likely between 83 and 1,100), based on data from Nov 10, 2026. Around 77,000 accounts (between 26,000 and 180,000) have played it at some point. Mekanism publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
