Istaria: Chronicles of the Gifted is a classic MMORPG launched in 2003, originally known as Horizons. It has a persistent world and fits the MMO criteria, but its age, low mainstream profile, lack of recent media attention, and niche community mean the current daily active players are likely very low, in the low hundreds at best.
Estimated Daily Players
~15 thousand
We estimate that The Sandbox has currently around 15k players daily.
The Sandbox is a blockchain-based virtual world and sandbox game that peaked in popularity during the NFT/metaverse boom around 2021-2022. Activity has dropped significantly since then, partly due to a wider decline in interest in crypto gaming and metaverse titles. It is still supported by Animoca Brands and has a steady, niche user base, but the current daily player count is relatively low compared to its peak. It does offer massively multiplayer elements but most spaces are instanced or event-driven, not a single persistent shared world.
