Nexters' Hero Wars surpasses 150 million lifetime installs, a new record for the fantasy RPG. This achievement is particularly noteworthy considering the game's longevity, having launched over five years ago. Despite intense competition, Hero Wars continues to perform strongly in various revenue charts, maintaining its position as a top-grossing title for Nexters.
The game, which follows the knight Galahad's quest to defeat the Archdemon, has consistently held its ground in the charts since its 2017 release. While a comprehensive quality assessment is beyond the scope of this article, the sustained popularity clearly indicates a dedicated player base.
One potential factor contributing to this latest milestone is the recent collaboration with Tomb Raider. Hero Wars' unique (some might say unusual) advertising style may have alienated some potential players, but this high-profile partnership likely provided a much-needed boost in credibility, enticing a new wave of players to experience the game.
This success suggests that future collaborations are a strong possibility.
