Phantasy Star Online 2 is a well-known action MMORPG developed by Sega, originally released in 2012. The game received major updates and a Western launch (including the New Genesis relaunch), bolstering engagement. However, as it is over a decade old, its global daily active players have significantly declined from its peak, likely around 25,000 based on historical trends for long-running MMOs with niche but loyal player bases.
