How these estimates are made

EverQuest II

EverQuest II is estimated to have 450 – 2k players a day. Around 71k – 180k accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.

Perfect World

Perfect World is estimated to have 8 – 4k players a day. Around 5k – 480k accounts have played it in total. No Steam data is published for this game, so the range is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. It is a rough band rather than a measurement.
