Goddess of Victory: Nikke has generated 1.3 billion dollars in revenue in only 3.5 years since launching in November 2022. This matches the profit from selling around 32 million copies of a $70 AAA game after platform fees, marketing, and production costs. The game has over 20 million downloads worldwide: >Japan accounting for 48.3% of revenue >South Korea 19% >United States 17.3%. This is a great example of how the live-service gacha model can outscale traditional boxed games in revenue For context, even massive single-player hits like The Last of Us Part II or recent Call of Duty campaigns rarely clear that kind of sustained net impact without DLC/microtransactions of their own
