Rage:MP

VS

Last Epoch

Rage:MP is a multiplayer modification framework for Grand Theft Auto V, allowing the creation and play of custom servers. While it enables large persistent worlds reminiscent of MMO environments, the game itself serves as a platform for such content rather than operating as an MMO in the traditional sense. Daily activity fluctuates; as of 2024, the player base is stable but niche, mostly centered around roleplay servers, which can attract thousands at peak times, but the overall daily active user base is modest compared to mainstream MMOs or GTA Online itself.

Last Epoch is an action RPG released in early 2024, developed by Eleventh Hour Games. It has received strong attention from the ARPG community, especially in the wake of Diablo IV's mixed reception. Daily player count is estimated around 70,000 based on Steam charts peaks and genre trends for new, well-received indie ARPGs. Continued post-launch content could sustain or grow this. It is not an MMO, as it does not feature a true persistent world or large-scale multiplayer environments—multiplayer is limited to smaller parties.
