Pokémon Go

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.

Pokémon Go, launched in 2016 by Niantic Labs and The Pokémon Company, remains a leading mobile AR game. While its initial peak was much higher, it consistently maintains high active daily users due to ongoing events, strong brand recognition, and global reach. High engagement is reinforced through regular content updates and seasonal events, although numbers have declined from their 2016–2017 peak.
