PokeMMO

Roblox

PokeMMO is a long-running fan-made Pokémon MMO that launched in 2012 and has maintained a steady, niche but dedicated player base due to its unique multiplayer take on classic Pokémon games. Despite its age, it still attracts thousands of daily players thanks to regular updates and the enduring appeal of the Pokémon IP. However, as a fan project, it doesn't reach mainstream MMO numbers, but community buzz and statistics from forums/redits suggest daily activity in the lower tens of thousands.

Roblox is a massively popular sandbox platform, released in 2006 but continually updated and widely adopted by younger audiences globally. It consistently reports tens of millions of monthly active users, with peak daily actives usually around 5–10% of monthly users. Recent filings and reports indicate Roblox has over 60 million daily active users, but this covers global user logins across many devices and experiences. Adjusting conservatively for reporting and engagement variance, daily actives typically exceed 50 million worldwide, but simultaneous users generally peak in the hundreds of thousands to low millions. As a platform with persistent worlds, it fits the broader MMO definition.
