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.
Estimated Daily Players
We estimate that Guild Wars has currently around 3k players daily.
Guild Wars, released in 2005 by ArenaNet and published by NCsoft, is a classic instance-based MMORPG. While highly popular in its early years, its player base has significantly declined after the launch of its sequel (Guild Wars 2) in 2012. Today, it remains online but largely maintained for a small, dedicated community. The age of the game and lack of major recent updates place the daily player count in the low thousands.
