Hero Online is a fantasy MMORPG that launched in 2006. Given its age (over 15 years old), faded presence in the genre, and lack of recent notable updates or active community, it likely has a very small, niche playerbase. Most similar games with comparable age and support tend to fall well below 1,000 daily active players unless propped up by regional popularity or nostalgia. Netgame Inc is not a major publisher, and the game's Western presence is limited.
Estimated Daily Players
We estimate that RuneScape has currently around 60k players daily.
RuneScape is a long-standing MMORPG released in 2001 by Jagex. It maintains a persistent world and large concurrent populations, meeting MMO criteria. Despite its age, RuneScape is still supported with regular updates and has a loyal user base across desktop and mobile platforms. Industry estimates and public player tracking suggest it remains popular, averaging tens of thousands of daily players.
