How these estimates are made

Hytale

We estimate that about 7,000 people play Hytale on a typical day (most likely between 1,600 and 21,000), based on data from Nov 14, 2026. Around 820,000 accounts (between 280,000 and 1,900,000) have played it at some point. Hytale publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: medium — Steam covers part of the player base, or several community signals agree.

Minecraft

We estimate that about 64,000 people play Minecraft on a typical day (most likely between 15,000 and 190,000), based on data from Nov 14, 2026. Around 3,100,000 accounts (between 1,100,000 and 7,300,000) have played it at some point. Minecraft publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
