PTG Database Analysis

Asian Games Esports is the recurring esports medal programme within the Asian Games. The Olympic Council of Asia selects the titles and administers the programme; dates, medal winners, participating NOCs and formats remain edition-specific.

OCA’s Aichi-Nagoya 2026 announcement lists 11 titles. PTG stores those titles as canonical game links and keeps Identity V as its own Game record. The 2026 edition is kept separate from the recurring programme so future editions do not overwrite one another.
