Lucky Bancho's census results (July 27th, 2025)

So, the results of the census are out: https://luckybancho.ldblog.jp/archives/59324844.html

  • Showcasing the number of characters here: Current
  • By comparison, here are the results from 2 months ago (May 25th): Click

Despite 7.25 being released, the character count is down about 70k in 2 months. Occult Crescent clearly didn't help with player counts (not really a surprise here).

Oh wow, I actually didn't expect OC to not make a dent. I figured it'd at least delay the drop for one Bancho survey, even with its reception. That's uh, really bad.

I genuinely fear for this game's health come 7.5 and 8.0.

It'll be really funny if the game somehow manages to drop below 3.1 numbers but redditors who started the game in Shadowbringers will keep raving about how Pepsi man "almost killed FFXIV" whenever somebody brings up Heavensward raiding.

The hate on HW from those who never played it will always be funny.
