How these estimates are made

Phantasy Star Online 2

Phantasy Star Online 2 is estimated to have 3k – 9k players a day. Around 430k – 1m 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.

Shaiya

Shaiya is estimated to have 4 – 2k players a day. Around 4k – 400k 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.
