Aurora is a Dayashinese science fiction military shooter franchise created and published by Dayacom Gaming Studio and developed by Dojo since 2001 in collaboration with Heidan since 2012. Set far in the future, the story of the franchise centers around the struggle of humanity against a variety of ancient alien invaders who threaten to eradicate humans from space. Aurora is very commonly associated with esports and gaming culture as a whole in Dayashina and Septentrion, largely thanks to the prolonged global success of Aurora 3's competitive multiplayer scene and the subsequent success of future Aurora titles. The games have sold over 60 million copies worldwide, bringing in multiple billions of dollars worth in value to Dayacom with sales of the game alone.
