How these estimates are made
Return: Unknown
Return: Unknown is estimated to have 2 – 1k players a day. Around 2k – 180k 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.
Sea of Thieves
Sea of Thieves is estimated to have 18k – 62k players a day. Around 4m – 11m 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.
