[row]“We are very happy with the game’s reception and the excellent download chart positions we achieved on the opening week. Like all Next Games’ titles, this game, crafted with love and care, is being developed as a long-term service. A week after global release, we are in the very beginning of this exciting journey. On the first week, an average player played 7 sessions per day and spent 37 minutes in the game. The players have collectively completed 100 million missions and walked 9 million kilometers (5.5 million miles), which is 220 times around the Earth. The most active cities are New York, Paris, and Tokyo. We are also seeing a promising trend in early monetization with the first week’s average revenue per daily active user at 0.35 euros, which is a very good result at launch.”[/row]
