FreeSO is a fan-made, open-source recreation of The Sims Online (an MMO from the early 2000s). Being a niche project mainly for nostalgia or Sims fans, and with minimal marketing or support since 2017, the community is small and activity is usually limited to a few hundred dedicated players daily. Its MMO status is justified by persistent worlds and large shared spaces, but its audience is limited by age and unofficial nature.

Estimated Daily Players

~220 thousand

We estimate that Final Fantasy XIV Online has currently around 220k players daily.

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.
