Enlisted

Final Fantasy XIV Online is a major Square Enix MMORPG, originally released in 2013 but relaunched as "A Realm Reborn." It remains one of the top three global MMOs, consistently receiving major expansions and significant updates, keeping its player base very healthy even over a decade in. Estimated at around 200,000–250,000 daily active players based on recent expansion launches, ongoing events, and visible community activity.

Enlisted is a free-to-play squad-based World War II shooter developed by Darkflow Software and published by Gaijin Entertainment. Launched in 2020 and available on multiple platforms, its player base is supported by ongoing updates and events promoted by Gaijin. However, as a niche shooter (and not a top-tier AAA franchise), its daily active players likely peak in the tens of thousands, not hundreds of thousands. The game has moderate popularity among enthusiasts of realistic shooters but does not reach the scale of major titles like War Thunder or Battlefield. Players per match are capped and it lacks the persistent world of a true MMO.
