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 World of Warcraft Classic has currently around 400k players daily.
World of Warcraft Classic, released in 2019, is an MMORPG developed by Blizzard Entertainment. Its daily active player base remains substantial due to Blizzard's regular content updates, ongoing nostalgia for classic WoW, and inclusion in the WoW subscription alongside the retail version. While player numbers are lower than at launch, it still attracts hundreds of thousands daily across multiple regions and modes (Classic and its various expansions).
