How these estimates are made
Pixelmon
We estimate that about 4,400 people play Pixelmon on a typical day (most likely between 1,000 and 13,000), based on data from Nov 11, 2026. Around 500,000 accounts (between 170,000 and 1,100,000) have played it at some point. Pixelmon publishes no Steam player data, so the estimate is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. Confidence: low — a community-size model, not a measurement.
Rust
We estimate that about 590,000 people play Rust on a typical day (most likely between 420,000 and 820,000), based on data from Nov 11, 2026. Around 20,000,000 accounts (between 16,000,000 and 26,000,000) have played it at some point. It is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player count, converted to daily players, so players on other launchers or consoles may not be fully counted. Confidence: high — measured from a full day of Steam data, for a game played mainly on Steam.
