Heat and Run is an indie MOBA/platform shooter hybrid released in late 2022. As an indie title without major publisher backing, it likely never reached high player counts and has probably declined since launch. MOBAs from small developers often struggle to find large, sustained audiences. Based on its age, indie status, lack of major promotional impact, and typical genre trends, a small but dedicated community is likely, with daily players estimated in the low hundreds.

Estimated Daily Players

~200

We estimate that Artifact has currently around 200 players daily.

Artifact, developed and published by Valve, launched in 2018 as a digital collectible card game. Despite Valve's reputation, the game quickly lost players due to its controversial monetization and gameplay reception, and official updates largely ceased. The player base is now extremely low, with only a handful of daily matches played as of recent years.
