Realms of Despair is a text-based MUD (Multi-User Dungeon) that launched in 1994 and is one of the oldest online fantasy RPGs still in operation. These games have a small, resilient core player base but see very low daily activity by modern standards, especially given its age and niche appeal. MUD communities are typically in the dozens after nearly 30 years online.

Estimated Daily Players

~15 thousand

We estimate that Neverwinter has currently around 15k players daily.

Neverwinter is a free-to-play MMORPG developed by Cryptic Studios and released in 2013. While it saw significant popularity after launch, like most MMOs of this age, active player numbers have declined but remain steady due to regular updates and solid support from its publisher, Perfect World. Its cross-platform presence helps retain a dedicated player base, but as a decade-old game, it's past its peak.
