Legends of IdleOn

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.

Legends of IdleOn is a well-known idle MMORPG created by indie developer LavaFlame2, released in late 2020 and available on multiple platforms (PC, Android, iOS). While it is not developed by a major studio, the game has remained popular within its niche, fueled by regular content updates and a dedicated player community. Given its cross-platform support, ongoing development, and its distinct idle MMO format, a daily player count in the 25,000–40,000 range is typical for active indie MMOs of this scope about 3-4 years after launch.
