Shaiya is a classic fantasy MMORPG first released in 2007 by Aeria Games. It had a sizable player base in its early years, peaking around 2008–2010, but as an aging free-to-play MMORPG with limited recent updates and heavy competition, its global daily active player base has dwindled. Some private servers persist, but the official game maintains a much smaller yet dedicated community.
Estimated Daily Players
~100 thousand
We estimate that Rust has currently around 100k players daily.
Rust is a well-known multiplayer survival game, released in 2018 by Facepunch Studios. It maintains high popularity on platforms like Steam due to frequent updates, Twitch presence, and a strong PvP-focused community. It typically sees tens of thousands of concurrent players, so 100,000 daily players is a reasonable estimate for 2024.
