Sword Art Online: Integral Factor

ArcheAge

Sword Art Online: Integral Factor is a mobile and PC action RPG published by Bandai Namco, released in 2018. While it had popularity in its first years—especially among SAO anime fans—player base has declined over time due to lack of major updates and competition in the mobile RPG space. Still, it retains a steady niche audience, particularly in Asia. Estimate: 35,000 daily players.

ArcheAge is a well-known sandbox MMORPG launched in 2013. While it initially drew strong interest due to its open world and sandbox systems, its player base has shrunk over the years, in part due to controversial monetization decisions and competition. Recent trends and community figures suggest the game retains a loyal but relatively small population, with most activity centered in a few regions. It is clearly an MMO based on its persistent world and large-scale multiplayer interaction.
