Ark: Survival Evolved

Stick Fight: The Game is a popular indie action/party fighting game released in 2017, developed by Landfall Games. While it had strong popularity at launch and remains a favorite for party and local multiplayer sessions, its daily active player base has declined with age. Its cross-platform releases help retention, but indie party games typically have lower long-term concurrent player counts compared to AAA titles. The game typically peaks at a few thousand concurrent players across all platforms, so an estimate of around 3,500 daily active players is reasonable in 2024.

Ark: Survival Evolved is a popular survival sandbox game released in 2017 and available on nearly all platforms. Its peak was several years ago, but it maintains a stable community thanks to official and community servers, modding, and occasional event content. While numbers have declined since launch, the game still sees tens of thousands of daily players across PC and consoles, especially due to its ongoing updates and active mod scene. However, it is not an MMO as it does not feature a single, large-scale persistent world—servers are capped and players are sharded.
