New Club Penguin

VS

Elite: Dangerous

New Club Penguin is a fan-made recreation of the original Club Penguin, which was discontinued by Disney. As a browser-based social MMO for children, it has a persistent world and supports large-scale multiplayer interaction, though it is not officially supported and operates in a legal gray area. The game's daily player count is likely much lower than the original's peak due to its unofficial status and competition from other similar projects; an estimate of around 2,000 daily players is reasonable given its niche but dedicated community.

Elite: Dangerous, released in 2014 by Frontier Developments, is a space simulation MMO with a persistent shared galaxy, but its player base has declined since launch. The game maintains a niche but dedicated audience, especially after major updates; however, numbers have notably trended downward in recent years. Current estimated daily active players are likely around 13,000, reflecting its aging status, modest ongoing support, and competition from other space games.
