Enlisted

Persona 5: The Phantom X is a recently released (April 2024) mobile/PC RPG with strong backing from notable publishers like Sega, Atlus, and Perfect World Games. Its association with the well-known Persona franchise and release across mobile platforms suggest a moderate but sizable player base, especially in Asia. However, it is not marketed as an MMO—it's primarily a single-player turn-based RPG with limited multiplayer features, so it doesn't fit MMO criteria.

Enlisted is a free-to-play squad-based World War II shooter developed by Darkflow Software and published by Gaijin Entertainment. Launched in 2020 and available on multiple platforms, its player base is supported by ongoing updates and events promoted by Gaijin. However, as a niche shooter (and not a top-tier AAA franchise), its daily active players likely peak in the tens of thousands, not hundreds of thousands. The game has moderate popularity among enthusiasts of realistic shooters but does not reach the scale of major titles like War Thunder or Battlefield. Players per match are capped and it lacks the persistent world of a true MMO.
