Final Fantasy XIV: Shadowbringers - Collector's Edition

VS

Artifact

Final Fantasy XIV is one of the largest and most successful MMORPGs, consistently retaining a strong player base since its relaunch as 'A Realm Reborn' in 2013. 'Shadowbringers' (2019) is one of its acclaimed expansions. The game maintains large-scale, persistent multiplayer worlds on multiple platforms, and Square Enix continues to provide major updates and expansions, keeping DAP higher than most MMOs its age.

Artifact is a digital card game developed and published by Valve, released in 2018. Despite a strong initial push, the game saw a rapid decline in its player base shortly after launch due to a variety of issues, including monetization and gameplay concerns. Valve officially ceased major development in 2021 and made the game free, but daily active player numbers have remained very low since. Based on recent trends and available data from Steam, the daily player count is estimated to be in the low hundreds.
