MapleStory is a classic 2D MMORPG released in 2003 by Nexon, still maintained with regular updates, events, and international servers. Despite its age, it retains a loyal fanbase and moderate popularity, particularly in South Korea and NA/EU. Current daily active players are estimated between 30,000–50,000 across all regions, reflecting long-term decline but ongoing niche appeal.

Palworld is a survival/adventure sandbox game released in January 2024 by Pocketpair. It experienced an explosive launch with millions of sales and high concurrent player counts on PC. Since launch, player counts have declined from their peak but remain strong for a new multiplayer survival game, thanks to active updates and ongoing community engagement. It's not an MMO, as servers are typically limited to smaller group sizes and don't feature a true persistent, massively multiplayer world.
