Supercell grossing $500,000 a day on iOS

MCV Staff 10th October 2012 Business News

Social game developer Supercell has revealed its averaging over the startling figure of $500,000 a day between two iOS games.

The studio told The New York Times its raking a cool $350,000 daily from the App Store after Apple takes it 30 per cent.

That means Supercell is bringing in over $10m each month after Apple takes its cut.

The Finland-based dev established a ‘tablet-first’ mobile strategy earlier this year, and has seen unreal sales success from its iOS releases Hay Day and Clash of Clans.

Tallying Rovio’s well-known App Store accomplishmentsalongside Supercell, it seems clear making mobile games in Finland is a pretty lucrative endeavor.

More than 4 million people have played Core Keeper, and every one of them started the same way, waking in a dark cavern beside an ancient Core that has lain dormant for aeons. Pugstorm and Fireshine Games, the game's developer and publisher, have now worked with Scan to build that Core into a real gaming PC. It is one of a kind, and it is the prize in the Global Games Draw, a new prize draw for Into Games, a UK charity that helps young people from working class backgrounds into careers in games. Every entry raises money for that work.
