Dungeon & Fighter Mobile is a massive contributor to Tencent\'s mobile-gaming revenue

Author : Amelia Feb 10,2025

Dungeon Fighter Mobile's phenomenal success underscores Tencent's bold defiance of app stores. The game's impact is staggering: in its inaugural month, DnF Mobile contributed over 12% to Tencent's total mobile gaming revenue – a significant sum for the world's leading gaming company by revenue.

This makes Tencent's decision to challenge app stores even more audacious. By removing DnF Mobile, a game generating such substantial income, from app stores and directing users to a direct download, Tencent is taking a considerable financial risk.

While DnF Mobile's strong initial performance is unsurprising given the established DnF franchise and typical lucrative launch periods, Tencent's strategic move is noteworthy. The company chose its most financially successful mobile title to challenge the established app store distribution model. The outcome remains uncertain, but the gamble is undeniably significant.
