How these estimates are made

Final Fantasy XIV Online

We estimate that about 660,000 people play Final Fantasy XIV Online on a typical day (most likely between 390,000 and 1,100,000), based on data from Nov 11, 2026. Around 9,300,000 accounts (between 6,100,000 and 14,000,000) 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.

Shaiya

We estimate that about 180 people play Shaiya on a typical day (most likely between 41 and 520), based on data from Nov 11, 2026. Around 57,000 accounts (between 20,000 and 130,000) have played it at some point. Shaiya is on Steam, but Steam covers only part of its players, so the estimate also draws on the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
