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
~45 thousand
We estimate that Star Citizen has currently around 45k players daily.
Star Citizen is a highly ambitious, persistent online sci-fi universe developed by Cloud Imperium Games and in development since 2013. The game maintains strong interest due to continuous updates and community engagement, though it's still in alpha. Its daily active players generally range from 30,000 to 60,000, despite being niche compared to mainstream MMOs, but with a loyal playerbase and steady developer communication.
