The Legend of Heroes: Akatsuki no Kiseki

VS

Enlisted: Reinforced

The Legend of Heroes: Akatsuki no Kiseki is a spin-off/browser/mobile RPG based on the Trails series. Released in 2016, it has a niche but dedicated following, mostly in Japan and Asia. Its player base has declined significantly since launch, but ongoing updates and the strength of the Trails fanbase likely keep a small but stable community active, mainly on PC and mobile. The game is not widely played outside its core regions and is well past its peak activity.

Enlisted: Reinforced is a relaunch/major update to 'Enlisted,' a squad-based WW2 shooter by Darkflow Software, historically published by Gaijin Entertainment. The core game has maintained a modest but dedicated playerbase, buoyed by frequent updates and free-to-play access. The 'Reinforced' update/launch (mid-2024) likely gives a boost, especially in its initial weeks, but third-party stats and genre trends suggest daily active players around 40,000–50,000, down from its peak surges. Not a traditional MMO (lobby-based large matches rather than persistent world).
