How these estimates are made
Meridian 59
We estimate that about 110 people play Meridian 59 on a typical day (most likely between 25 and 320), based on data from Nov 14, 2026. Around 47,000 accounts (between 16,000 and 110,000) have played it at some point. Meridian 59 is on Steam, but Steam covers only part of its players, so the estimate also draws on the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
Rust
We estimate that about 690,000 people play Rust on a typical day (most likely between 500,000 and 970,000), based on data from Nov 14, 2026. Around 20,000,000 accounts (between 16,000,000 and 26,000,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: high — measured from a full day of Steam data, for a game played mainly on Steam.
