World of Warcraft Classic

Foxhole

World of Warcraft Classic, released in 2019 by Blizzard Entertainment, is a major MMORPG revival of the original WoW experience. The game continues to have a robust, though markedly smaller, player base than at launch, thanks to a steady cycle of classic content and expansions (like Wrath of the Lich King Classic). As an MMORPG developed and maintained by a top-tier publisher, it sees strong retention, but is several years past launch and shares its community with retail WoW. Given this, an estimate in the 200,000–250,000 daily player range is reasonable as of 2024.

Foxhole is a persistent online war game (released in 2017) developed and published by Siege Camp. The game is noted for its MMO-styled open world, where hundreds of players interact and cooperate in large-scale warfare over days or weeks. While not a mainstream title, it has an active, passionate community and niche appeal. Player numbers tend to be stable for a dedicated audience, typically in the high thousands per day based on previous Steam chart data and ongoing community activity.
