Eve Online is a long-running MMORPG that has maintained a loyal core playerbase since its 2003 launch. While its daily active players have declined from their peak, it remains one of the most prominent space MMOs due to consistent updates and its unique open-world sandbox gameplay. Current estimates place daily players at around 20,000–30,000, which reflects its veteran community and niche appeal.

Current estimated daily active players are likely around 13,000, reflecting its aging status, modest ongoing support, and competition from other space games.
