Fallout 76

MechWarrior Online, released in 2013, is a tactical mech combat game by Piranha Games. It had strong IP recognition at launch but the player base has declined over the years due to niche appeal and sparse major updates. As a persistent online PvP title, it maintains a small but dedicated fan base. Estimated current daily players are roughly 1,000–2,000 based on industry knowledge and its age.

Fallout 76 is a 2018 online open-world survival RPG from Bethesda. After a rough launch, the game's player base stabilized thanks to consistent content updates and improvements. While its concurrent popularity never matched leading MMOs, its cross-platform presence and support allow it to maintain a smaller but steady loyal community. As of 2024, daily active players are estimated around 30,000–40,000 based on public sentiment, recent expansions, and visible in-game activity, particularly after updates or events.
