Mobile Gaming's Expanding Horizons:
The success of Loop Hero on mobile challenges the common misconception that high-quality games are scarce on the platform. This title, along with a growing number of indie releases, showcases the increasing potential of the mobile market for premium games, even outside the popular gacha, strategy, or casual genres.
While the exact number of paying players remains unknown (Loop Hero offers a free trial), even a modest conversion rate to paid users makes mobile a highly attractive platform for developers.
