Minecraft China is a localized, free-to-play version of Minecraft published by NetEase since 2017 with support from major publishers and regular content updates. It caters to a massive Chinese player base, widely reported to have tens of millions of total users, with conservative DAP estimates around several hundred thousand to over a million. Its open-world/sandbox model encourages ongoing engagement, especially in China, where it is a top online game. However, it is not a traditional MMO as it lacks a single persistent world with thousands of simultaneous players in one space.
Estimated Daily Players
We estimate that New World: Aeternum has currently around 42k players daily.
New World, now known as New World: Aeternum, was released in 2021 by Amazon Game Studios and quickly attracted a large launch audience, but experienced a significant decline after its first year due to content and technical issues. However, ongoing updates, expansions, and a recent console launch (with PlayStation 5 support) have provided periodic population boosts. As of mid-2024, it maintains a modest but stable daily population for a modern MMORPG, typically ranging from 30,000 to 60,000 daily players across platforms.
