Rust is a popular multiplayer survival game released in 2018 by Facepunch Studios. Despite its age, it continues to maintain a strong player base due to frequent updates, viral streaming presence, and a devoted community. SteamCharts and third-party tracking consistently show around 80,000-90,000 daily active users on PC, with some console presence as well. The game thrives on large, persistent servers, but individual servers typically support 100-300 players, not the thousands seen in true MMOs.
Estimated Daily Players
We estimate that Knight Online has currently around 25k players daily.
Knight Online is a classic MMORPG released in 2002 that still maintains a dedicated niche player base, particularly in countries like Turkey. Although its global popularity has faded, it retains daily activity due to its persistent world and ongoing updates from NTTGame. Older MMORPGs with cult followings often remain in the 10,000–30,000 daily player range unless they have shut down, and recent trends show Knight Online remains active.
