Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds

Ilysia is a VR MMO RPG developed and published by Team 21 Studio LLC. It is a niche title, primarily targeting VR users, which limits its potential audience. As an indie MMO, it likely has a small but dedicated player base, especially since VR penetration is still relatively low. The game is recognized as an MMO due to its persistent world and multiplayer focus, but active daily players are likely in the low hundreds.

Ni no Kuni: Cross Worlds is a mobile and PC MMOARPG published by Netmarble, released in mid-2021. It had a major launch, leveraging both the Ni no Kuni IP from Level-5 and gacha/MMO mechanics. The game peaked high but, like most mobile MMOs, saw significant player count decreases after the initial year. In 2024, it retains a dedicated but much smaller global player base, with estimated daily active users likely in the 50,000–100,000 range, especially due to its presence in Asia. Major publisher support and continued updates help maintain its relevance.
