Utopia: Origin

VS

Scum

Utopia: Origin is a mobile open-world survival game released in 2018 by HK HERO ENTERTAINMENT. It gained moderate popularity, particularly in Asian markets, due to its sandbox multiplayer features and appeals to players interested in fantasy survival crafting on mobile devices. However, as a mobile game over 5 years old and without strong Western presence or major expansions, its active player base has likely declined but retains a niche community. This estimate reflects typical lifecycle and genre trends for such titles.

Scum is a multiplayer open-world survival game developed by Gamepires and originally entered Early Access in 2018. While it is not a full MMO, it supports servers with dozens of players (up to 64 per server). The game maintains a niche but dedicated following and is frequently updated; however, it has never reached large mainstream status. Based on long-term trends of similar survival games, its daily active player base is estimated to be in the low thousands, and this estimate would hold unless a major relaunch or expansion revitalized the player base.
