Pocket Legends

World of Warcraft Classic

Pocket Legends is a mobile MMORPG originally released in 2010 by Spacetime Studios. As an early mobile MMO, it enjoyed significant popularity at launch but has seen a major playerbase decline with age. The genre (MMORPG) often retains a small but dedicated community long-term, though large-scale popularity is unlikely after 14 years without major relaunches. Current estimated daily player activity is low but not zero, as classic mobile MMORPGs typically have a lingering niche audience.

World of Warcraft Classic, released in 2019 by Blizzard Entertainment, is a major MMORPG revival of the original WoW experience. The game continues to have a robust, though markedly smaller, player base than at launch, thanks to a steady cycle of classic content and expansions (like Wrath of the Lich King Classic). As an MMORPG developed and maintained by a top-tier publisher, it sees strong retention, but is several years past launch and shares its community with retail WoW. Given this, an estimate in the 200,000–250,000 daily player range is reasonable as of 2024.
