Ark: Survival Evolved

War of Dragnorox is a fantasy sandbox RPG released in late 2023 by a small studio (Triune Studios). Despite some genre overlap with MMORPGs, it is a niche indie title without major publisher support or broad public awareness. Interest and player base typical for small-scale indie RPGs months after release is likely very limited, especially without major marketing or critical buzz.

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.
