Township

Last Epoch is an action RPG released in early 2024, developed by Eleventh Hour Games. It has received strong attention from the ARPG community, especially in the wake of Diablo IV's mixed reception. Daily player count is estimated around 70,000 based on Steam charts peaks and genre trends for new, well-received indie ARPGs. Continued post-launch content could sustain or grow this. It is not an MMO, as it does not feature a true persistent world or large-scale multiplayer environments—multiplayer is limited to smaller parties.

Township is a popular city-building and farming simulator developed by Playrix Entertainment, released in 2013. It has remained widely played, especially on mobile platforms, due to Playrix's strong support and engagement via social media. However, as it is over ten years old, its daily active player base has likely diminished from its peak, though it still maintains significant traction in casual mobile gaming. My estimate reflects its age, the large global reach of free-to-play mobile games, and the continued activity seen in its communities.
