Rift is a veteran MMORPG launched in 2011 by Trion Worlds. It had a strong start and maintained a dedicated player base, but it has seen significant decline over the years, especially after publisher changes and a lack of major content updates. As of 2024, it likely sustains a small, niche community typical of long-running MMORPGs without major recent expansions.
Estimated Daily Players
~120 thousand
We estimate that The Elder Scrolls Online has currently around 120k players daily.
The Elder Scrolls Online (ESO) is a major MMORPG developed by ZeniMax Online Studios and published by Bethesda. Released in 2014, it has maintained a strong player base through regular major expansions and updates. Although its peak concurrent userbase was higher after launch and at key expansion drops, it remains one of the top MMORPGs with a healthy, active population across PC and consoles. Based on industry knowledge and typical MMO retention with major publisher support, a current estimate of 120,000 daily players is reasonable.
