Dragalia Lost Revenue Per Download Was $25 Its First Month in Japan, More than 4x Fire Emblem Heroes
- Thread starter CGiRanger
- Start date
So that means that its engagement is very good, but its awareness is low.
That's a better position to be in than the opposite for sure! Awareness is a lot easier to fix and will no doubt improve over time, especially as it continues its worldwide rollout.

This game seems to be a success.
Nintendo is slowly learning how to make money in the mobile space, for better or worse

It's quite a bit better that FEH, so that's good.
Haven't spent anything on it yet, but I want the welcome pack.

Summon rates are hot garbage but the gameplay and overall presentation is very good.
Right now, Tokyo's subway lines are carpeted with Dragalia Lost ads and posters. They're definitely taking it seriously from a promotional perspective.
I believe the rates are a lot lower than Fire Emblem, but it's also cheaper.
Kind of evens out
Nah, it doesn't. It's even worse than FGO, which is saying something, as its pool is crowded with units, dragons, and cards.
Oh I thought it Lost money. Forgot it was called dragalia lost lol
I even hsve it downloded but havnt played it yet

that's about how much I have put in to Pokemon Go in a year, or two years of Clash Royale.
Mighty impressive dedication :O

What a surprise, Japanese people are obsessed with waifus.
Also, those absolutely garbage rates sure probably helped make them spend more.

Haha yes I am in the exact same boat, I always read any such thread title as Dragalia losing something and it always (every single time) takes me a couple of seconds to realize my mistake.
This. OP needs title quotes or something around the game name.
Thought this was an estimated loss to piracy thread.
My thought lol, when reading the title, i saw Dragalia lost 20$ per download .
So what you are saying is that we need to petition Nintendo to rename the game into Dragalia Win ?

Any pics of this? Would like to see how it is being advertised there.
The game has plenty of value packs that skip the RNG so it feels easier to spend money because you know exactly what you're going to get.
You can spend money on a month's worth of stamina refills or on specific crafting materials, as opposed to FEH where you're really only ever spending money on more spins on the gacha.
The low rates are pretty overblown since this is a game all about grinding and if you put in enough effort buffing up your dudes you can clear probably 99% of the game's content with 3*s. Heck, there's a guy over in the game's OT who has an alt account where he doesn't do any pulls at all and he's been clearing all the events with the characters the game gives every player for free.

It's only been released in the US, Japan and small parts of Asia.

I'd wager a bet and say the data they have of spendings per continent of their other mobile gacha factors in their decision not to release it worldwide.
You know that there's many games on this format that are failures, right? It's not any game that is able to do that. lol
Nah, I didn't take photos. It was all massive pictures of the key art: the blonde hero boy, a big dragon, some other characters. No screen shots or game explanations.
When I was in Japan in September, I saw the trailer play on a huge screen at Shibuya crossing like a dozen times during my visit.
