How these estimates are made

Eve Online

We estimate that about 80,000 people play Eve Online on a typical day (most likely between 47,000 and 130,000), based on data from Nov 10, 2026. Around 2,900,000 accounts (between 1,900,000 and 4,400,000) 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.

MineColonies

We estimate that about 1,100 people play MineColonies on a typical day (most likely between 260 and 3,300), based on data from Nov 10, 2026. Around 200,000 accounts (between 67,000 and 450,000) have played it at some point. MineColonies publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.
