Loop Hero breaks one million downloads on mobile

Four Quarters' captivating time-bending RPG, Loop Hero, has achieved a remarkable milestone: over one million mobile downloads! This achievement comes just two months after its mobile launch, a testament to its enduring appeal even after its initial 2021 Steam debut.

Loop Hero plunges players into a roguelike adventure where an evil lich has fractured time itself. Players embark on expeditions, upgrading their hero and acquiring new equipment with each journey, gradually progressing towards the climactic final battle and the hope of saving the world.

Beyond the Usual Mobile Fare

The persistent notion that "there's nothing good on mobile" is increasingly challenged by titles like Loop Hero. While gacha and casual games dominate the mobile landscape, a growing number of indie developers recognize the potential of bringing premium experiences to mobile platforms.

Loop Hero's one million downloads in just two months powerfully illustrates this shift. While the exact number of paying customers remains unknown (Loop Hero offers a free trial), even a modest conversion rate makes mobile a compelling platform for developers.
