The release of the mobile multiplayer RPG Dungeon & Fighter Mobile in China turned out to be very successful: the game tops sales in the local Apple App Store. On the launch day (May 21, 2024), it “displaced” MOBA Honor of Kings, which had been leading the rankings for a long time, from first place. And in the following days, it did not allow the role-playing action Wuthering Waves, which is currently in second place.
There were so many people wanting to play that the game servers couldn’t handle it, and stability problems began. In the first three days, Tencet, the game’s publisher in China, was forced to carry out many hours of technical work to stabilize the game service. Analysts explain such a great interest among players by several facts: the DNF franchise is very popular in the country, and the publisher took a responsible approach to the advertising campaign, inviting a famous actor for advertising and launching a gaming event with Bruce Lee.
Dungeon & Fighter Mobile is a mobile action RPG based on the popular Dungeon Fighter Online franchise. The original project was released on PC in 2005 and created a huge fandom of 850 million users worldwide. The game borrows from the original source not only the original graphic style, but also a dynamic combat system with combos and without auto-combat. There are also many activities for both PvE and PvP. Release in South Korea took place in March 2022.
