3. 🤔 Future Outlook: Global Server Maintaining Stability and China Server's Challenges
· Global Server: The effect of new character introductions on revenue rankings remains valid. OTs-14, in particular, contributed to revenue growth as a new attribute and popular character. If appealing new characters and large-scale events continue to be released, there is room for revenue rebound.
· China Server: Despite not lacking in content volume in August, revenue significantly decreased. This is analyzed as a lack of elements to stimulate spending demand from existing players, beyond new characters or events. In the future, it will be crucial whether changes can be made to existing characters and environments through new characters, upper keys, and new attribute systems.
· Points to Watch in the Future: The recovery of the China server's revenue seems to depend on the performance of the first upcoming sister-operated SSR dolls, 'Cecilia' and 'Iron Maid Leader Agent'. It is necessary to monitor the trends in this regard in the September revenue analysis.
