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
We estimate that Old School RuneScape has currently around 90k players daily.
Old School RuneScape is a well-known fantasy MMORPG from Jagex, released in 2013. It maintains a strong persistent player base due to nostalgia, consistent updates, and mobile availability. Although past its peak, it still regularly draws tens of thousands of daily active players across all platforms. Estimates in recent years place its daily active player count between 70,000–120,000, so 90,000 is a conservative current estimate.
