Silkroad Online

Roblox

Silkroad Online is a classic MMORPG released in 2004. The game had a strong following in its early years but, like many older MMORPGs without major recent expansions or relaunches, its active player base has declined significantly over time. Niche private servers and a loyal fanbase keep it alive, but official daily active numbers are now likely in the low thousands.

Roblox is a massively popular sandbox platform, released in 2006 but continually updated and widely adopted by younger audiences globally. It consistently reports tens of millions of monthly active users, with peak daily actives usually around 5–10% of monthly users. Recent filings and reports indicate Roblox has over 60 million daily active users, but this covers global user logins across many devices and experiences. Adjusting conservatively for reporting and engagement variance, daily actives typically exceed 50 million worldwide, but simultaneous users generally peak in the hundreds of thousands to low millions. As a platform with persistent worlds, it fits the broader MMO definition.
