[Asia Economy Reporter Seungjin Lee] Com2uS revealed the overseas achievements of ‘Summoners War: Sky Arena’ (hereafter ‘Summoners War’), which celebrated its 8th anniversary this year, on the 13th.


‘Summoners War’ was first released domestically in April 2014, followed by a global service launch for international users in June. It attracted significant attention with its differentiated gameplay featuring monster collection and combination strategies. Marking its 8th anniversary this year, ‘Summoners War’ recently surpassed a cumulative revenue of 3 trillion KRW, demonstrating its long-term popularity.


The cumulative overseas revenue of ‘Summoners War’ accounts for about 90% of the total. It is unusual for a single intellectual property (IP) to achieve most of its success overseas. By regional revenue share, the ‘Americas’ region accounts for about 32%, and ‘Europe’ about 21%, with these two regions alone making up more than half of the total revenue.


In ‘Summoners War,’ where collecting and combining various monsters is one of the core gameplay elements, the total number of monsters summoned since the service began is estimated at approximately 67.6 billion. By overseas server share, Asia excluding Korea recorded the highest number of summons at about 25.4 billion, followed by North America with about 22.2 billion, and Europe with about 15 billion.


Information comparing overseas revenue with representative domestic export products was also introduced. The cumulative overseas revenue of ‘Summoners War’ is approximately 2.715 trillion KRW, which corresponds to about 2.7 million smartphones, 20.1 million cosmetics, and 2.715 billion packets of instant ramen.



Com2uS plans to continue these overseas achievements by providing various content updates for ‘Summoners War’ and sustaining the global eSports tournament, the ‘Summoners War World Arena Championship (SWC).’ Recently, the company has been unveiling various new games based on a worldview spanning 150 years and plans to expand into diverse content such as light novels, webtoons, comics, and animations.
