Galaxywars was launched in 2001 as a browser-based real-time strategy sci-fi game under Gameforge, which is known for persistent, multiplayer online games. While it had a loyal following in the early 2000s, its player base has likely dwindled due to age, competition, and lack of recent promotion or updates. As a Gameforge browser MMO, it likely maintains a small but dedicated niche audience, so an estimate of around 500 daily active players is reasonable for a legacy title of this kind.
