Phantasy Star Online 2

Vindictus

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.

Vindictus is a 2010 action MMORPG by Nexon and devCAT, known for its instanced missions and hack-and-slash combat. Despite an innovative engine and loyal niche fanbase, the game is over a decade old and no longer widely promoted outside Asia. Given the typical decline of older MMOs and limited mainstream visibility, I estimate around 3,000 daily active players, largely sustained by dedicated fans and legacy systems.
