Minecraft remains one of the most popular games globally, supported by an enormous multi-platform user base and an active community. Despite its age (released in 2011), its sandbox, mod-friendly structure, and continual updates from Mojang/Microsoft sustain impressive engagement. Estimates suggest hundreds of thousands to over a million daily users across all platforms, so a conservative estimate is 700,000 daily active players.

Estimated Daily Players

~2.5 thousand

We estimate that The Sandbox has currently around 2.5k players daily.

The Sandbox is a blockchain-based user-generated sandbox game, popular during the NFT and crypto gaming boom of 2021–2022. Since then, the player base has significantly declined due to decreased mainstream interest in crypto games and limited appeal outside Web3 communities. However, some activity remains from core users and creators, leading to a modest estimate.
