We grade our own calls, in public, every week.
Every call publishes with a pre-registered metric before the week starts. The following issue grades it against that metric, and a miss runs with the same prominence as a hit. The record to date comes from our three internal June editions, written and scored under the same rules before launch.
every one published, hit or miss
As of July 20, 2026
The Worlds Report - Issue #3
- Animal Hospital (Anomaly) went from the Roblox #1 accelerator, three weeks running, to its #1 decelerator (down 67.7M new visits) in a single week. But the co-op lane held at 15.0% of new visits, because [AZURE] Forsaken (+26.5M) and 100 Days At Sea (+21.3M) stepped straight into the top-3 accelerators. The genre absorbed its own flagship's collapse inside one week.
- Fortnite grew a lane its structure works against. The widest-reach island on the whole platform was a social hangout (FESTIVAL CITY, 1,363 unique visitors in 24 hours, more than the top PvP island), and Roleplay/social demand jumped to 5.4% of CCU from 0.8% as the median session lengthened 11.4 to 13.0 minutes.
- GTA-6 islands came back (3 in the Fortnite top-15 by peak CCU), but the fastest riser among them peaked at 180 and was drawing a 24-hour peak of 8 two days later. The theme is durable and the islands are disposable.
Platform demand shapes
The meters show how much of each platform's demand the top worlds already hold, in the most recent week.
Roblox
top-10 share 52.8% top-1 10%
Winner-take-all. The top 10 hold 52.8% of new visits (eased from 54.6%); a game that holds players compounds into a giant, and the median world sees about 78,959 new visits a week.
Fortnite Creative
top-10 share 13.9% top-1 1.7%
Long tail. The median island peaked at 9 CCU on roughly 13-minute sessions; a fresh niche island is viable and disposable, and a launch spike decays in about 48 hours.
VRChat
top-10 share 42.6%
Destination-driven. Occupancy clusters around worlds people return to; favorites act as the return signal, and an update to an older world can re-enter the top tier.
