Old School RuneScape is a well-established MMORPG developed and published by Jagex, released in 2013 as a retro version of the original RuneScape. The game benefits from strong brand recognition, ongoing updates, and mobile accessibility, which help sustain an active player base over a decade after launch. Industry knowledge and recent data suggest a daily active player count typically in the 50,000–100,000 range, with spikes during major updates or events.

~42 thousand

We estimate that New World: Aeternum has currently around 42k players daily.

New World, now known as New World: Aeternum, was released in 2021 by Amazon Game Studios and quickly attracted a large launch audience, but experienced a significant decline after its first year due to content and technical issues. However, ongoing updates, expansions, and a recent console launch (with PlayStation 5 support) have provided periodic population boosts. As of mid-2024, it maintains a modest but stable daily population for a modern MMORPG, typically ranging from 30,000 to 60,000 daily players across platforms.
