I don’t know the answer to your question (though I’n guessing their github isn’t the repo they actually use for development and thus could be a little behind), but Aurora and Google Play should have the same version, as Aurora just fetches it from Aurora as far as I know.

This is way more than just competing against MS because Kadokawa is way more than a game publisher. Reuters framing it from a FromSoftware perspective makes the issue seem way smaller.
