Meridian 59
15 – 53 daily players
Meridian 59 was the first graphical massively multi-player game. Played on the Internet with hundreds of users able to interact in the same world, the game is often considered the start of modern MMO gaming.
Meridian 59 is estimated to have 15 – 53 players a day. Around 13k – 32k accounts have played it in total. The range is anchored on Steam’s official concurrent-player and review counts, then converted to daily actives and accounts — so it covers the Steam player base and will under-count a game played mostly through its own launcher or on console.
