Guild Wars, released in 2005 by ArenaNet and published by NCsoft, is a classic instance-based MMORPG. While highly popular in its early years, its player base has significantly declined after the launch of its sequel (Guild Wars 2) in 2012. Today, it remains online but largely maintained for a small, dedicated community. The age of the game and lack of major recent updates place the daily player count in the low thousands.

Estimated Daily Players

~15 thousand

We estimate that Elite: Dangerous has currently around 15k players daily.

Elite: Dangerous released in 2014 and is maintained by Frontier Developments. It's a persistent online space sim with a dedicated but niche audience, typical of older, complex simulators. Player numbers have declined from launch highs, but a strong core community remains; estimated daily players are around 15,000 based on current trends for similar titles, community activity, and public platform data.
