How these estimates are made

Shadow Arena

Shadow Arena is showing no measurable concurrent players on Steam. Around 120k – 300k 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.

World of Warcraft

World of Warcraft is estimated to have 640 – 300k players a day. Around 120k – 12m accounts have played it in total. No Steam data is published for this game, so the range is modelled from the size of its Discord, Reddit, Twitch, YouTube and app-store communities. It is a rough band rather than a measurement.
