This lines up with the start of the Lionsgate timeline, but the story is much longer in the books than in the movie. The First Formic War starts in 87 BX, which is 2115 AD. Instead of using the Gregorian calendar, the years on the franchise's Wiki database have the suffixes "BX" and "AX," which are shortened versions of "Before Xenocide" and "After Xenocide." The story of Ender's Game takes place between 87 BX and 315o AX in the books. However, the timeline for the books appears to use a completely different system.
The timeline for the movie stretches back to before Ender's birth, with the first Formic alien invasion happening between 21. Before the movie adaptation of Ender's Game was released, Lionsgate published a timeline of events in the movie universe, stating that Ender goes to Battle School in 2195 and is promoted to lead Dragon Army in 2198, with the climax of the movie happening in 2201. While the story takes place in the future, the movie and the books follow different timelines.
