Scopely announced that Monopoly Go has generated $2 billion in revenue just 10 months after launch and three months after hitting $1 billion.
The reimagined take on Hasbro’s iconic board game has garnered a massive player base, solidifying its place as a beloved, highly engaging title in the free-to-play market. It’s a big score not only for Scopely but its new owner Savvy Games Group, which bought Scopely in April for $4.9 billion in a deal that is starting to look like a bargain. (Brian Ward, CEO of Savvy, and Scopely leaders are expected to speak at GamesBeat Summit 2024 in Los Angeles on May 20-21).
Debuting 10 months ago, Monopoly Go has rapidly gained momentum, amassing a vibrant community of millions of players. That’s an extremely short window to hit $2 billion in revenue. It has been downloaded 150 million-plus times.
“It’s amazing to think that at this time last year, we were preparing for the worldwide launch ofMonopoly Go after a seven-year journey to develop the game,” said Scopely co-CEO Javier Ferreira, in a blog post. “Last month, we celebrated another major milestone in the Monopoly adventure by officiallypassing $2 billion in lifetime revenue. That exciting moment came just ten months since launch and only three months after reaching $1 billion, which is astounding. The trajectory of this experience has been nothing short of extraordinary, and we have our talented team and passionate players to thank.”
