Last Epoch

OGame is a long-running browser-based space strategy MMO from Gameforge, released in 2002. Its peak popularity has passed, but it still maintains a dedicated niche community due to regular updates and the persistent, competitive universe mechanics. Despite its age, the game holds onto a core player base familiar with browser MMOs. Most players come from Europe and Latin America. A daily active player count in the 10,000–20,000 range is a reasonable estimate considering its longevity and niche status.

Last Epoch is an action RPG released in early 2024, developed by Eleventh Hour Games. It has received strong attention from the ARPG community, especially in the wake of Diablo IV's mixed reception. Daily player count is estimated around 70,000 based on Steam charts peaks and genre trends for new, well-received indie ARPGs. Continued post-launch content could sustain or grow this. It is not an MMO, as it does not feature a true persistent world or large-scale multiplayer environments—multiplayer is limited to smaller parties.
