Ark: Survival Evolved

Wakfu is a tactical MMORPG by Ankama, released in 2012. While it has a loyal niche player base, the game's age and relatively modest presence outside of French-speaking regions has led to a gradual decline in player numbers. As of 2024, it's likely to average around 4,000 daily players, with periodic increases during major updates or events.

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.
