PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS - Season 20

VS

Hero of Aethric

PUBG: BATTLEGROUNDS is a veteran battle royale shooter that originally sparked the genre's global popularity. While its initial release was in 2017, the game continues to receive regular seasonal updates (as indicated by Season 20) and maintains a large international user base, particularly in Asia. The daily active player count has declined from its peak but remains strong due to its free-to-play model, cross-platform support, and ongoing updates by major publishers. However, its numbers are lower compared to its peak years, reflecting natural battle royale lifecycle trends.

"Hero of Aethric" is a mobile indie RPG released in late 2022 by Northern Forge Studios, the creators of "Orna: The GPS RPG". Given its indie status, niche market, and secondary following from Orna players, the game likely maintains a small but loyal audience. Mobile indie RPGs with some online elements typically see DAPs in the low thousands unless they achieve breakout success.
