# N.E.X.T.B.O.T.S. vs Die Again

The clearest difference is rating: Die Again at 4.8 against N.E.X.T.B.O.T.S.'s 4.0. Die Again also leads on ratings volume (37K vs 2K) and update cadence (every 3 weeks vs every 6 weeks). N.E.X.T.B.O.T.S.'s advantage is review sentiment (55% vs 33%) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 15.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and monetization model there is nothing between them.

Both are free to download. N.E.X.T.B.O.T.S. sells 12 in-app purchases, starting at $1.99 per 7 days and Die Again sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $1.49 per 7 days. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.

Die Again holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.0. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Die Again has 37K ratings behind it against 2K, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 55% of N.E.X.T.B.O.T.S.'s written reviews are positive against 33% of Die Again's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

N.E.X.T.B.O.T.S. ships an update every 6 weeks, Die Again every 3 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 27, 2026 respectively.
