Hero Wars Surpasses 150 Million Lifetime Installs, Maintaining Top-Grossing Status

Nexters' fantasy RPG, Hero Wars, has achieved a remarkable milestone: 150 million lifetime installs. This achievement is particularly noteworthy given the game's longevity (released in 2017) and the intense competition within the mobile gaming market. The title, known for its distinctive (some might say unusual) YouTube advertising, has also seen significant revenue growth.
