WarBirds Dogfights

Last Epoch

WarBirds Dogfights is a long-running online air combat simulator series best known for its popularity in the early 2000s. The 2016 release is niche, appeals to simulator enthusiasts, and is now quite old. Given its age, niche genre, lack of major publicity, and publisher/developer info, it's likely to have a small but dedicated player base, estimated around 50 daily active players.

Last Epoch is an action RPG released in early 2024, developed by Eleventh Hour Games. It has received strong attention from the ARPG community, especially in the wake of Diablo IV's mixed reception. Daily player count is estimated around 70,000 based on Steam charts peaks and genre trends for new, well-received indie ARPGs. Continued post-launch content could sustain or grow this. It is not an MMO, as it does not feature a true persistent world or large-scale multiplayer environments—multiplayer is limited to smaller parties.
