Roblox

Zenith: The Last City is a VR MMORPG released in early 2022 by indie studio Ramen VR. At launch, it saw significant attention as one of the first full-scale VR MMOs, but like many indie MMOs, its player base has decreased over time. As of 2024, activity is modest but persistent, bolstered by occasional content updates and the niche VR MMO community.

Roblox is a massively popular sandbox platform, released in 2006 but continually updated and widely adopted by younger audiences globally. It consistently reports tens of millions of monthly active users, with peak daily actives usually around 5–10% of monthly users. Recent filings and reports indicate Roblox has over 60 million daily active users, but this covers global user logins across many devices and experiences. Adjusting conservatively for reporting and engagement variance, daily actives typically exceed 50 million worldwide, but simultaneous users generally peak in the hundreds of thousands to low millions. As a platform with persistent worlds, it fits the broader MMO definition.
