Warface: Clutch

Swords of Legends Online is an MMORPG released in 2018, developed by Wangyuan Shengtang and published in the West by Gameforge. While the game initially launched with some attention due to its Chinese fantasy theme and strong visuals, it struggled to maintain a Western audience, with reports of server merges and declining population within a few years. As of 2024, the player base is likely minimal, but dedicated fans may keep a few hundred daily active players remaining, particularly in Asian markets. Its lifecycle trends reflect a sharp drop after launch, typical of niche MMOs without major ongoing expansions or international momentum.

Warface (now Warface: Clutch) is a free-to-play online first-person shooter originally released in 2013. Though once more popular—especially early in its life and during major content drops—it has seen a steady decline but maintains a dedicated niche playerbase. Run by established publishers (MY.GAMES, Tencent), with cross-platform play and continuing updates, a daily player count around 25,000 globally is reasonable. Its gameplay is more instanced PvP/PvE than persistent-world MMO.
