The Legend of Neverland

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.

The Legend of Neverland is a cross-platform (mobile and PC) fantasy open-world RPG released in 2021 by GameArk Global. It draws clear inspiration from Genshin Impact and had early success in Southeast Asia. However, as a mid-tier publisher release and lacking the global traction of major titles, its player base is moderate and likely in decline due to age (3+ years). Still, mobile MMORPGs in this segment tend to retain a loyal but reduced base. An average daily active player estimate around 15,000 is reasonable.
