Sensor Tower is reporting that Fire Emblem Heroes has surpassed $500 million in worldwide player spending. It has grossed more than twice the combined earnings of Nintendo’s other mobile titles, including Dragalia Lost.
Japan is the country that has spent the most on Fire Emblem Heroes at 56% ($280 million). The next closest country is the United States at 31% ($155 million). The remaining 57 regions comprise just 13% of revenue.
Fire Emblem Heroes has been just slightly more popular on Google Play, as spending on that platform represents 54% of spending. The App Store holds on to the other 46%.
Dragalia Lost overtook Fire Emblem Heroes’ monthly revenue in October and November. However, Fire Emblem Heroes was back on top in December and January. January revenue was $17.6 million, up year-over-year slightly from $17.3 million.
There has been an increase in weekly player spending of more than 100% due to in-game events tied to its two-year launch anniversary. Gross revenue during anniversary week topped $6 million, up from roughly $2.9 million during the preceding seven days.
