War Dust VS Eve Online

War Dust is a multiplayer VR warfare simulator released in 2020 by Raptor Lab. As a VR-focused large-scale shooter, it initially drew attention for big battlefields but niche VR player bases and lack of continued mainstream exposure or publisher push limit its current audience. Four years after release, most VR shooters see significantly reduced daily engagement, commonly in the low hundreds unless continuously updated or widely marketed.

Eve Online is a long-running MMORPG that has maintained a loyal core playerbase since its 2003 launch. While its daily active players have declined from their peak, it remains one of the most prominent space MMOs due to consistent updates and its unique open-world sandbox gameplay. Current estimates place daily players at around 20,000–30,000, which reflects its veteran community and niche appeal.
