Cartoon Strike

Phantasy Star Online 2 is a well-known action MMORPG developed by Sega, originally released in 2012. The game received major updates and a Western launch (including the New Genesis relaunch), bolstering engagement. However, as it is over a decade old, its global daily active players have significantly declined from its peak, likely around 25,000 based on historical trends for long-running MMOs with niche but loyal player bases.

Cartoon Strike is an indie multiplayer shooter released in 2020, developed and published by Gametoria. As a small-scale, niche title without support from a major publisher and lacking significant mainstream exposure or updates, its player base has likely declined since launch. It does not have the player retention seen in long-running, high-profile shooters. Current daily active players are likely low, in the range of about 100.
