Balatro, developed by LocalThunk, made an impression from its launch thanks to its particularly original concept. This is a roguelike poker game based on synergies and in which each game allows you to unlock new joker and bonus cards. A concept enhanced by sound design and artistic direction praised by critics and players.Balatro not nominated for Apple Arcade Game of the Yearfor nothing. Another proof of its success: its turnover on mobile since its launch two months ago.It amounts to $4.4 million.
Balatro generates millions of dollars on mobile since its release in September
AppMagic reveals that Balatro has generated $4.4 million since its release on iOS and Androidon September 28 (Balatro+ was launched on September 26 on Apple Arcade). Remember that the poker game managed to reach a million dollars in turnover in just one week. A great performance knowing that the availability of Balatro on Apple Arcade means that some players have access to the game without paying for it directly. One thing is sure,LocalThunk will not attempt to inflate this figure with microtransactions.
«The game will not have microtransactions, there will be no predatory monetization. Once you pay for the app, its content will be identical to the Steam/console versions of the game for the life of the game. No version of Balatro mobile will feature in-game advertising», Wrote the studio on Reddit.
Of course, this won't stop LocalThunk from evolving its title.Balatro's first major update is coming in 2025.It will bring new mechanics and new strategies. Remember that Balatro is also nominated for the Game Awards 2024 in the categories of Game of the Year and Best Mobile Game.
