Sky: Children of the Light

VS

Roblox

Sky: Children of the Light is a cross-platform, socially-oriented adventure title from ThatGameCompany (creators of Journey) and published by NetEase. Launched in 2019 and consistently receiving seasonal content updates, it maintains a strong, dedicated mobile and console player base, especially in Asian markets. Its unique multiplayer instance system enables shared world experiences but does not reach the persistent, large-scale MMO threshold. Daily active players are estimated around 150,000 due to ongoing popularity and global releases.

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.
