Star Wars: The Old Republic

Hero Plus (previously known as Hero Online) is a classic free-to-play MMORPG by MGAME, originally launched much earlier and re-released in the West in 2018. As an older, niche title with a small publisher and minimal current social presence, it's likely maintained by a dedicated but very small player base. Its persistent world and structure qualifies it as an MMO, but its global reach and userbase have declined significantly over the years.

Star Wars: The Old Republic is a classic MMORPG launched in 2011 by BioWare and published by Electronic Arts. Although it had a large player base at launch, the numbers have declined over the years, especially since it's now over a decade old and several expansions have come and gone. However, it still maintains a loyal core community thanks to regular content updates and the strength of the Star Wars IP. As an MMORPG, it does meet the MMO criteria with a persistent online world and the ability to interact with thousands of players simultaneously.
