Solo Leveling Arise's alleged first-month numbers support its successful launch claims
The @SLANewsEN X account, a reliable dataminer for Solo Leveling Arise, has recently posted what it claims to be the revenue generated by the game on different digital storefronts.
The leaker has posted a screenshot, which shows the game has earned 9 million USD from two different websites. The symbols beside these figures suggest they belong to Android and iOS devices.
However, the 18 million USD can be part of the revenue and not the real number. This is because it seems that the action role-playing game has gathered nine million purchases via Google Play or iOS devices, which doesn't take the purchases on Netmarble's official website into account. Therefore, it seems the original number can be higher than the estimates provided in the X post.
A comment from @_Ikuroda under the X post shows a revenue graph for the game in the last thirty days, which claims its revenue in the last thirty days has been over 20 million USD. The top three countries contributing to this revenue generation are South Korea with 31%, the USA with 21%, and Japan with 20%. However, note that the authenticity of this screenshot hasn't been verified.
The future of gacha games often gets decided within the first six months or one year of their launch. Since most of these games have a pay-to-win aspect, information like this slightly reflects the community's interests regarding the game. According to these figures, Solo Leveling Arise can stay alive for years to come.
