It's been a little while since the last Multiplayer Watch and the gaming public has shifted a bit. A couple of the larger events to have happened is the release of TRIBES2 on to the scene as well as the exodus of Quake3 players towards Counter-Strike going along with the CPL announcement of supporting CS more. Here's how the numbers are stacking up right now:
| Diablo2 | 74,010 |
| EverQuest | 73,975 |
| Half-Life | 54,157 |
| Asheron's Call | 14,524 |
| Unreal Tournament | 5,846 |
| Quake3 + TeamArena | 4,240 |
| TRIBES2 | 4,013 |
| Black&White | 3,473 |
| TRIBES | 1,876 |
| Quake2 | 1,804 |
