How these estimates are made
Project Reboot
Project Reboot is estimated to have 4 – 2k players a day. Around 3k – 300k accounts have played it in total. No Steam data is published for this game, so the range is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. It is a rough band rather than a measurement.
Rust
Rust is estimated to have 350k – 1m players a day. Around 13m – 34m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
