This information comes from Nintendo president Shuntaro Furukawa…

Dragalia Lost, a new and original game application developed in collaboration with Cygames, was released on September 27. Initially, distribution was going to be limited to the four regions of Japan, Taiwan, Hong Kong and Macao, but the US was added when the service began for the title.

This title is an original application using completely new IP, and no existing Nintendo IP. Even so, the game attracted lots of consumer interest in the US and the rest of Asia, let alone Japan, even before the service launch, with over 1 million people pre-registering for this title. This confirmed the presence of a certain number of consumers who are keen to play this game, and even though the service launch was only slightly more than one month ago, we have already recorded sales approaching 4 billion yen by now since its service launch on September 27. In the US, the game achieved a high user-review rating of 4.8 stars in the App Store, indicating a positive reception for the game’s content. Summing this up, we think we could state that this has been a steady kick-off as a challenge for creating new IP that has been embraced by consumers around the globe. Going forward, we will be putting our efforts into television commercials and other promotional activities, while also making effective use of events and updates, in order to further expand the ranks of consumers playing this title.

Dragalia Lost has been around (at least in some countries) for roughly a month. How has it done since its release? Based on new data from Sensor Tower, the mobile game seems to be doing very well.

Thus far, Dragalia Lost has generated about $28 million. Roughly $23.5 million of that total stems from player spending in the United States and Japan. Dragalia Lost is Nintendo’s second largest mobile launch in those two countries behind Fire Emblem Heroes.

A new set of Water Blessing quests have been added to Fire Emblem Heroes. They require you to defeat a variety of enemies as well as clear specific Training Tower Stratums using Heroes that have the Water Blessing conferred on them. The rewards include orbs, feather and stamina potions. The quests will be available until November 13th.

Also, Intelligent Systems shared some of their plans about upcoming Heroes in a notification they published today. Apparently they’ve received a lot of questions from players asking about when characters from specific Fire Emblem games will be added to Heroes, and two of the most requested games have been Radiant Dawn and Binding Blade. Intelligent Systesm revealed that they plan to add Heroes from Radiant Dawn in January 2019, while Binding Blade will get some new representation in March 2019.

With tonight’s update hitting Dragalia Lost, a couple of important additions have been made available for players.

First off, a log-in bonus in celebration of the game’s latest software update is available from now until November 6th, netting players a free Tenfold Summon Voucher.

Players will want to take advantage of this, as well as the new Getherwing Double-Recovery Event, which is set to run until November 12th. Fittingly enough, getherwings will recover at twice the clip that they normally do during this period.
