How these estimates are made

Enlisted

Enlisted is estimated to have 10k – 35k players a day. Around 760k – 2m accounts have played it in total.

Rust

Rust is estimated to have 230k – 810k players a day. Around 13m – 34m accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
