Loop Hero breaks one million downloads on mobile

Four Quarters' captivating roguelike RPG, Loop Hero, has achieved a remarkable milestone: over one million mobile downloads! This achievement, just two months after its mobile launch (following its 2021 Steam debut), underscores the enduring appeal of Loop Hero's unique gameplay.

Loop Hero plunges players into a time-bending adventure orchestrated by a malevolent lich. Players embark on repeated expeditions, upgrading their hero and acquiring new equipment with each loop, ultimately striving to confront the lich and restore order to the chaotic world.

Mobile Gaming's Expanding Horizons

The persistent misconception that "there's nothing good on mobile" is increasingly challenged by titles like Loop Hero. While gacha and casual games dominate, a growing number of indie developers recognize the potential of the mobile market, even for premium titles.

Loop Hero's million-plus downloads in just two months serve as compelling evidence. While precise paying customer figures remain undisclosed (Loop Hero offers a free trial), even a modest conversion rate to paying customers makes mobile a highly attractive platform for developers.
