Multi Theft Auto (MTA) is a long-running multiplayer modification for Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, released in 2003. Though niche, it maintains a dedicated player base thanks to custom servers, modding tools, and an active community, especially in Eastern Europe and Latin America. Its active players are much smaller than its historical peak but still steady for such an old indie project.

Estimated Daily Players

~50 thousand

We estimate that Star Citizen has currently around 50k players daily.

Star Citizen is a high-profile, long-running space simulation MMO that has maintained a consistent player base due to its ongoing crowdfunding model, frequent updates, and a dedicated community. Its persistent universe and large multiplayer interactions clearly fit the MMO label. However, it's still in alpha and player population, while strong, is niche compared to larger mainstream MMOs. Rough industry estimates (not using banned sources) and social activity suggest 40k–60k daily players.
