Pokémon Trading Card Game Online

A3: Still Alive is a mobile MMORPG published by Netmarble, released in late 2020. It combines action RPG and battle royale elements, benefiting initially from the publisher's large mobile audience. However, as a mobile MMO in its third year, player activity is likely in gradual decline. Industry trends for mobile MMOs suggest it retains a modest, but diminishing, daily player base leveraging recurring events and in-app purchases.

Pokémon Trading Card Game Online was a popular digital adaptation of the Pokémon TCG, released in 2011. The game maintained a modest but dedicated player base due to the Pokémon brand, but its daily active player count declined after the launch of Pokémon TCG Live (which replaced PTCGO starting in 2023). The original client is no longer actively supported, and most of the active player base has transitioned to Live. Estimated daily players on the old service are very low, possibly only a few thousand globally, but the Pokémon TCG franchise remains strong overall.
