How these estimates are made

FreeSO

We estimate that about 190 people play FreeSO on a typical day (most likely between 45 and 570), based on data from Nov 6, 2026. Around 54,000 accounts (between 19,000 and 120,000) have played it at some point. FreeSO 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.

Second Life

We estimate that about 1,800 people play Second Life on a typical day (most likely between 420 and 5,400), based on data from Nov 6, 2026. Around 330,000 accounts (between 110,000 and 760,000) have played it at some point. Second Life publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
