Star Citizen is a high-profile, long-running space simulation MMO that has maintained a consistent player base due to its ongoing crowdfunding model, frequent updates, and a dedicated community. Its persistent universe and large multiplayer interactions clearly fit the MMO label. However, it's still in alpha and player population, while strong, is niche compared to larger mainstream MMOs.
