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

~200

We estimate that There has currently around 200 players daily.

'There' is a social sandbox virtual world originally launched in the early 2000s, with its 2012 re-release by Makena Technologies. Once considered a competitor to Second Life, its player base has greatly declined due to age, limited updates, and competition. It maintains a small niche community, primarily loyal enthusiasts, but is no longer a major active social MMO. The game does meet the MMO criteria with a persistent online world and social sandbox features.
