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

~20 thousand

We estimate that The Lord of the Rings Online has currently around 20k players daily.

The Lord of the Rings Online is a classic MMORPG released in 2007. Despite its age, it maintains a loyal niche player base due to the enduring popularity of the Lord of the Rings IP and regular updates from Standing Stone Games. However, its age and niche status mean the daily active player base has declined considerably from its peak, currently estimated around 20,000 daily active players.
