The player population refers to players who are alive and active on the server. As of the 25th of May 2025, there are 1,177 living players and 287 active players who have connected to the server within the past two weeks.
Population Growth
The population has increased in size at a relatively steady rate since February 2025 with an average of 26 new players joining the server each day. A total of 2,518 players have connected to Legendary Hardcore since the server's creation.

Population Sink
Population sink is the point at which cumulative deaths surpass the number of living players. At this point, the number of dead players outnumber the living. The server is currently experiencing population sink. Based on data available up to the 29th of May, 53% of players have died.
Population sink is not necessarily a permanent state and it is possible for the population to stabilise again through an increase in the number of players joining the server. It is also possible for population sink to occur indefinitely without leading to population collapse, so long that there is a consistent stream of new players joining the server. This phenomenon is observable in the real world, where the number of humans who have died is far greater than the number of humans currently alive, yet the global population continues to grow.
Population Collapse
Since the server's creation, the population of living players has consistently grown. Population collapse is a hypothetical scenario where the population of living players decreases in size.
Population collapse would represent a stark change in population dynamics on the server. A decrease in the number of players joining the server and an increase in player mortality are the two core factors that could potentially bring about population collapse. There are currently no indications that the server is approaching population collapse.
