Brazil growth and Thai breakouts change the week's shape
Overall concurrency was flat, but a clear pt-BR share surge and several steady Thai breakouts rewrote who matters this week.
The network average held essentially steady (149629, down from 150149; -0.3%) while the composition of players shifted sharply. pt-BR rose to 35677 players and 24.1% share, pulling a much larger slice of the map. Outside Brazil, a group of Thai servers produced the clearest trajectories — multiple servers grew on most days rather than delivering single-night spikes. At the same time several previously large servers stopped reporting during the week, producing meaningful churn.
The week
Average concurrent players by day of week. Bars are scaled to the week's own range, not from zero.
The headline numbers mask a week of rearrangement rather than growth. Average concurrency was 149629 (previous week 150149, -0.3%) with a peak of 223033 and an average of 33080 servers online; 83233 distinct servers were seen at some point during the seven days. Weekday averages trace a U-shaped pattern with Monday and Tuesday (150929, 150772) ahead of a midweek dip (Wed 148665, Thu 145668, Fri 143565) and a recovery over the weekend (Sat 150364, Sun 157440). That weekend recovery is present but not unusually dominant; the week is best read as steady overall volume with shifting geography. The most consequential change is regional: pt-BR moved from 18.9% of players last week to 24.1% this week (35677 players), while ar-SA (16953, 11.4%) and th-TH (16481, 11.1%) also increased their shares. Other locales with noticeable increases include root-AQ, fr-FR and de-DE. The server-size snapshot at the end of the week shows 61 servers in the 500+ bucket, 212 between 201–500, 852 at 51–200, 1942 at 11–50, 119229 at 1–10 and 314496 empty instances — a distribution that makes any large, sustained movement at the top visible and comparatively rare. In short: the total player count barely changed, but who is playing — and where they cluster — shifted materially during the seven days.
Who moved, and whether it held
The most meaningful movers are the ones that grew across multiple days; they look like trajectories, not one-night spikes. SPACE TOWN is the clearest example: avg 198 (prev week 1), +197, and SPACE TOWN grew on 6/6 days with daily 1→3→4→127→157→402→696. That shape — tiny at the start of the week, then steady acceleration into the weekend — is the textbook breakout to watch next week for confirmation. WE CITY @RebirthzVPS (avg 200, prev week 18, +182) grew on 5/6 days with daily 117→159→190→191→172→277→292; OMEGA CITY (avg 173, prev week 2, +171) also grew on 5/6 days (4→5→4→192→285→313→409). Those three Thai servers form the most credible sustained expansion in the set. By contrast, Pixel Town! shows a large week-on-week jump (avg 626, prev week 101, +525) but grew on only 2/6 days and its daily line declines across the week (661→689→658→620→622→579→553), a shape consistent with a front-loaded spike rather than a continuing upswing. CHECK ZONE V1 (avg 208, prev week 16, +192) and CLOUD CITY @RebirthzVPS (avg 202, prev week 32, +169) achieved substantial increases and grew on 3/6 days; they merit attention but are less uniformly directional than the Thai trio. RIA ROLEPLAY NON-WHITELIST (avg 228, prev week 10, +218) posted a large percentage jump but started the week at zero and shows activity concentrated midweek (daily 0→335→235→271), so it is a partial arrival that still needs consistency. On the shrink side, LIGA DAS TROPAS - SALA 1 lost 544 players (avg 1181, prev week 1724, -31.5%) and recorded no growth days; South Beach collapsed to zeros after Monday (daily 147→0→0→0→0→0→0). Several other previously large names — Seoul High School, and Island of Love among them — posted steep declines, some falling to near-zero on the final day. The difference between sustained growth and single-night peaks is stark this week: the most interesting signals are the servers that grew on 5/6 or 6/6 days, not the biggest percent changes alone.
The leaderboard
Rank movement this week is extreme at both ends. Climbers include The Jungle, which moved from 32085 to 419 (up 31666) with an average of 53; ⌠PELO CITY!⌡ shifted from 30843 to 288 (up 30555), and ZK CITY from 29105 to 2087 (up 27018). Those jumps are important because they re-order visibility: large leaps from deep in the long tail into the mid-ranked universe can change discovery dynamics even when averages remain modest. The climbs here are mostly moves from very low visibility into noticeability — The Jungle and ⌠PELO CITY!⌡ averaged 53 and 19 players respectively, yet their rank gains are massive. Falls are as revealing. Island of Love plunged from rank 42 to 31375 (down 31333) and appears in other lists this week as a server that stopped reporting reliably. Vida Carioca Roleplay, The 312 TEST SERVER, NEXT PVP and FAIXADA ROLEPLAY FXD are other large-name fallers, each losing thousands of rank positions. Several of the week’s biggest drops correspond to servers that showed abrupt disappearance in the daily traces — the linkage between going dark and catastrophic rank falls is direct. The leaderboard volatility underlines a single point: rank alone conceals the cause. A server can be top‑50 one snapshot and effectively absent the next; this week supplied multiple such reversals.

Arrivals and departures
Churn was the other story this week: a cluster of newcomers survived the week while several large servers stopped reporting. New servers that persisted through the last day include multiple pt-BR entrants with substantial initial audiences: A Lisboa é o maior servidor do mundo com wl fechada. (first seen 2026-07-31, present 3/7 days, avg 1013, peak 1717), DZ7 ROLEPLAY WIPE 🡺 WL FECHADA (first seen 2026-07-31, present 3/7 days, avg 890, peak 1407), LADO LESTE — MAIOR WL FECHADA DO BRASIL (first seen 2026-08-01, present 2/7 days, avg 603, peak 1456) and others such as EUFORIA ROLEPLAY (avg 364, peak 709) and ㅤHype RPㅤㅤㅤ (avg 300, peak 1073). These survivors are concentrated in pt-BR and ar-SA locales and are the likely proximate source of the region’s increased share this week. Several large servers stopped reporting, however. Several large servers stopped reporting mid-week: LIGA DAS TROPAS - SALA 1 appears twice in the went-dark list (last seen 2026-07-27, was averaging 1453; and last seen 2026-07-23, was averaging 1191). DZ7 ROLEPLAY WIPE 🡺 WL FECHADA and A Lisboa… are also listed as last seen on 2026-07-31 while averaging 1146 and 1136 players respectively. Other notable disappearances include BRASIL ROLEPLAY WIPOU HOJE 👑 (last seen 2026-07-20, averaging 731), 「 WeAreGrave ∞ … 」 (last seen 2026-07-31, averaging 492) and Triggers PvP 3.0 (last seen 2026-07-24, averaging 434). Those drop-offs are not marginal: several of the items on the went-dark list were averaging hundreds or thousands of players when they stopped reporting, which is the kind of churn that reshapes week-to-week rankings and regional shares.
What to watch
What to watch next week: first, confirmation of the Thai breakouts. SPACE TOWN, WE CITY and OMEGA CITY are the cleanest trajectories; if each posts additional days of growth and weekend peaks above their current averages they have converted from novelty to trend. Second, the pt-BR cluster of newcomers — multiple high-average new servers are already present; the regional shift to 24.1% will be meaningful only if those servers remain visible across more days and hold a portion of their peaks. Third, monitor the disappeared names: if the large entries listed as last seen in late July reappear as new instances or remain absent, that will determine whether this week’s rank falls are permanent. For server owners the practical signal is simple: steady, multi-day growth (the report’s "grew on N/6 days" metric) is far more predictive than a single high-peak night. Watch daily shape as closely as weekly totals; a server that repeats 5/6 or 6/6 growth days has started a trajectory worth defending, whereas front-loaded spikes typically evaporate by the following week.
What to take away
- Average concurrency was 149629 (previous week 150149, -0.3%) with a peak of 223033.
- pt-BR share jumped to 24.1% this week, up from 18.9% the week before.
- SPACE TOWN grew on 6/6 days and OMEGA CITY and WE CITY grew on 5/6 days — those are the most convincing week-long trajectories.
- Several high-profile servers stopped reporting mid-week, including entries averaging over a thousand players when last seen.
- Rank movements were extreme: The Jungle climbed from rank 32085 to 419, while Island of Love fell from 42 to 31375.
