Hit Game 'Hero Wars' Surges Past 150 Million Installs

Hero Wars Surpasses 150 Million Lifetime Installs, Maintaining Top-Grossing Status

Nexters' fantasy RPG, Hero Wars, has achieved a remarkable milestone: 150 million lifetime installs. This achievement is particularly noteworthy considering the game's 2017 launch and the intense competition within the mobile gaming market. The title, known for its distinctive (and sometimes unusual) YouTube advertising, has also seen significant revenue growth.

Following the knight Galahad's quest to defeat the Archdemon, Hero Wars has consistently performed well in app store charts. While we haven't extensively reviewed the game's overall quality, its sustained popularity clearly indicates a dedicated player base.

From Quirky Ads to Collaborative Success

Hero Wars' unique, sometimes surreal advertising campaigns have undoubtedly generated both interest and skepticism. However, a recent major collaboration with Tomb Raider is likely a key factor in driving this latest milestone. The partnership lent Hero Wars a degree of legitimacy, potentially encouraging hesitant players to try the game. The success of this collaboration suggests future collaborations are a strong possibility.
