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

~650 thousand

We estimate that World of Warcraft has currently around 650k players daily.

World of Warcraft (WoW) is one of the most iconic and long-lived MMORPGs, originally released in 2004 by Blizzard Entertainment. Despite its age, it continues to attract a sizable playerbase due to regular expansions, updates, and strong community support. While it is far from its early peak, it remains a top subscription-based MMO and likely sustains about 500,000 to 800,000 daily active players globally, factoring in both retail and Classic versions.
