Odin: Valhalla Rising

Ethyrial: Echoes of Yore is a 2023 indie sandbox fantasy MMORPG from Gellyberry Studios and Freedom Games. The game garnered some niche attention at launch but, as a small-scale, indie MMO with no major marketing or backing, it likely has a low but stable community—estimated at under 1,000 daily active players at this stage, based on typical retention trends for indie MMORPGs a year post-launch.

Odin: Valhalla Rising is a mobile and PC MMORPG developed by Lionheart Studio and published by Kakao Games. It launched in 2021 and initially attracted significant attention in Korea and parts of Asia. As an MMORPG with cross-platform play, it benefits from the strong MMO market in those regions, but daily active players are likely lower outside of Asia. Given the game's age and the typical lifecycle for mobile MMORPGs, combined with Kakao's publishing power, a daily player count in the 60,000–70,000 range is plausible, with retention primarily in Korea and Taiwan.
