Game of Thrones: Winter is Coming

VS

The Elder Scrolls Online

Game of Thrones: Winter is Coming is a browser-based MMO strategy game released in 2019 by Yoozoo Games and published by Warner Bros. Interactive. It capitalized on the Game of Thrones brand but, as a licensed title in a declining genre, its player base has diminished since its release. The game still retains a small but steady international audience due to ongoing live events and monetization, but most browser MMORTS titles drop below 20,000 daily players after 5 years.

The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) is a major MMORPG developed by ZeniMax Online Studios and published by Bethesda. Released in 2014, it has maintained a strong player base through regular major expansions and updates. Although its peak concurrent userbase was higher after launch and at key expansion drops, it remains one of the top MMORPGs with a healthy, active population across PC and consoles. Based on industry knowledge and typical MMO retention with major publisher support, a current estimate of 120,000 daily players is reasonable.
