Mist Legacy

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.

Mist Legacy is an indie fantasy RPG developed and published by Virtys, released in late 2021. As a niche indie title, its player base was likely modest at launch and has seen typical post-launch decline. Sustained by a small but loyal community, estimated daily players are now likely in the low thousands. Indie RPGs of this nature with persistent online elements rarely exceed 2,000–3,000 daily players after two years post-launch unless they have major breakout success.
