Custom maps with high population
If you are looking for a more unusual DayZ experience, these custom and less common maps are active right now. They have fewer servers, but a high players-per-server ratio, making them good starting points for discovering new communities, custom terrains and less familiar servers.

Top 5 maps by server opening opportunity
This ranking only includes maps with at least 10 online servers. It shows where the most players currently sit per server, so it is a more realistic signal for where opening a new DayZ server may make sense right now.

DayZ maps FAQ
What do these DayZ map statistics show?
This page shows how active DayZ servers and players are spread across maps. It lists the live number of online servers and players, the most popular maps by servers and by players, and a breakdown chart, so you can see which DayZ terrains are actually being played right now.
What are the main DayZ maps?
The official terrains are Chernarus (Chernarus+), Livonia (Enoch) and Sakhal. Beyond those, popular community maps from the Steam Workshop include Namalsk, Deer Isle, Banov, Esseker, Pripyat, Takistan, Chiemsee and many more, each with its own size, climate and loot economy.
Which DayZ map is the most popular?
Chernarus is usually the most-played DayZ map by both server count and players, with Livonia and Sakhal following among the official terrains. The live chart and ranking above show the current order, which shifts as communities grow and new maps release.
Which maps have the most players, and how is that counted?
The page ranks maps both by online servers and by players, because a map can have many small servers or fewer but busier ones. Player counts use fresh online samples and cap duplicate host slots, so a single large host farm does not distort a map's real population.
Where are DayZ servers and players located by region or country?
Map popularity varies by region — some terrains are favoured in EU communities, others in NA or elsewhere. For the full per-country and regional breakdown of DayZ servers and players, see the DayZ servers by country statistics.
How often is the map data updated and where does it come from?
The statistics are built from continuously scanned public DayZ servers and refreshed regularly, using the same trust filters as the rest of the site, so the map split reflects the live server landscape without putting load on the game servers.
