ArcheAge

Roblox is a massively popular sandbox platform, released in 2006 but continually updated and widely adopted by younger audiences globally. It consistently reports tens of millions of monthly active users, with peak daily actives usually around 5–10% of monthly users. Recent filings and reports indicate Roblox has over 60 million daily active users, but this covers global user logins across many devices and experiences. Adjusting conservatively for reporting and engagement variance, daily actives typically exceed 50 million worldwide, but simultaneous users generally peak in the hundreds of thousands to low millions. As a platform with persistent worlds, it fits the broader MMO definition.

ArcheAge is a well-known sandbox MMORPG launched in 2013. While it initially drew strong interest due to its open world and sandbox systems, its player base has shrunk over the years, in part due to controversial monetization decisions and competition. Recent trends and community figures suggest the game retains a loyal but relatively small population, with most activity centered in a few regions. It is clearly an MMO based on its persistent world and large-scale multiplayer interaction.
