With Infinity Nikki reaching 30 million pre-registrations, the game made a significant impact in the cozy open-world genre before it was released to the public, and it continues to dominate. Data from AppMagic (via Pocket Gamer) highlights the game¡¯s extraordinary performance, though it should be noted that these figures represent mobile platform earnings only and exclude profits from the PlayStation 5 and Microsoft Windows versions of the game. Infinity Nikki earned $3.51 million in its launch week alone, followed by $4.26 million in the second week, and $3.84 million in the third week. By the fifth week, weekly revenue had tapered to $1.66 million, amassing nearly $16 million in profit within its first month of release. This marks the franchise's most successful launch, surpassing Love Nikki's first-month revenue of $383,000 by over 40 times. Infinity Nikki also significantly outperformed Shining Nikki's international launch in 2021, which generated $6.2 million during its first month. In fact, the overall statistics underscore the game¡¯s initial popularity.

Infinity Nikki Breaks Records with Massive First-Month Earnings

Infinity Nikki¡¯s success is largely driven by its reception in China, where downloads surpassed 5 million. This accounts for over 42% of the game¡¯s total downloads and cements China as a major contributor to its financial triumph.

This latest data information comes after it was reported that Infinity Nikki's mobile revenue peaked at over $1.1 million on December 6, just a day after its launch. Since then, daily earnings have gradually declined, though the game still generated $787,000 by December 18, marking the end of its second week. The decline accelerated in the following days, with daily revenue dropping below $500,000 for the first time on December 21 and hitting a low of $141,000 on December 26, its worst-performing day so far. However, revenue surged to $665,000 on December 30 following Infinity Nikki's Version 1.1 update, nearly tripling the $234,000 earned the previous day.

For potential players, Infinity Nikki is available for free on PC, PlayStation 5, iOS, and Android. The game¡¯s developers are committed to maintaining its momentum by regularly introducing seasonal events, such as Infinity Nikki's Fishing Day Event, and updates to enrich the player experience.
