Almighty Game Designer

As the exhibition progresses, the heat of Watchpioneer also continues to ferment.

Many game media outlets were present at the exhibition, all of which took note of the exhibition's most prominent new game, The Pioneer of Watch.

After the Baptism of Heroes League, a phenomenal game, it's no surprise that the media have done anything about Chen Jiao, and the importance Chen Jiao attaches to Watch Pioneer is to let them all smell the big news.

Although only training modes and man-machine fights were opened at the exhibition, and no one knows what it's like to fight players in Watchpioneer, just from what's currently out there, the game is attractive enough.

Game media, on the other hand, focus mainly on the world view, hero setup and play innovation of Watchpioneer.

……

Over this period of fermentation, whether it's player passions, media releases, or some related video feeds, more and more players are beginning to know about this new VR game, The Pioneer of Watches.

Of course, the huge trick of "free VR games" also plays a huge promotional role, which can be said to be invaluable.

Before Spring Festival, when some silent gaming circles were instantly detonated, Chen Jiao launched such a critical VR game that everyone was very surprised.

With the players eagerly awaiting, Watchpioneer is officially live!

This is just the right time, just before the end of the YouPlay Game Show, when the heat hasn't completely gone off, and just a week before the annual Game Awards ceremony hosted by the Board.

Many players have long been impatient to wait, and the first time Watch Pioneer was officially launched, the players all downloaded.

After all, it's a free game. Let's play first!

On the day WatchPioneer went live, there was a download trend among the domestic VR gamers, whether they were thunderous or not, whether they were FPS gamers or not, whether or not they knew the specifics of the game, just know that WatchPioneer and know it was a free game, all went to download and happily added one to their VR game compartment.

Free games, or you lose!

Soon, the first day of Download of "Watchpioneer" came out, successfully surpassing 400,000!

This data also shocked everyone in the industry. A lot of people are emotional. Free games are random!

You know, in the current domestic situation, there are more than 1.3 billion mobile subscribers, about 500 million PC subscribers, and only about 100 million VR subscribers.

That is, VR games are played by one-fifth of PC players.

Until then, the highest monthly sales of domestic VR games were also maintained by Chen Jiao, 4.22 million in My World. This is the second month of the launch of My World VR, which peaked in the second month of the launch due to the relatively slow heat of the game, followed by a gradual decline in sales and stabilization.

Before the launch of the League of Heroes on the PC side, after so much promotion and publicity, only 390,000 players landed on the first day.

The number of players on the first day of Watchpioneer's launch surpassed My World and surpassed the League of Heroes, which was unexpected by many.

Of course, this comparison is not quite fair, because My World, after all, has a toll threshold, and it's a relatively slow, hot game, and heat can't burst into flames all at once. Comparing free games to out-of-pocket games is a bit like playing hooliganism.

And when the League of Heroes came online, it wasn't really particularly popular, and the number of players grew exponentially in the middle and late years.

From the picture, when the League of Heroes first came out, there was no special advantage over other games on the market, and MOBA play was not recognized by most players at the beginning, so the first day of players were less than normal.

If we look at the current data, the number of players in the League of Heroes is growing wildly every day, and the number of players in the League of Heroes has successfully broken down tens of millions a year. If we compare it with the current League of Heroes, the 400,000 downloads per day of "Watchpioneer" is not an exaggerated number.

Although the first day of Downloads of "Watchpioneer" has the gimmick of “free games," the data can't expand without limits. After all, time is relatively rushed, and Chen Qiao has not devoted much resources to promoting it.

However, Chan is confident that this robust growth momentum will continue after Pioneer of the Watch goes live.

……

First day sales data from Watchpioneer made a lot of game designers blush. Obviously, Chan's VR game is on fire, with at least enough players and enough topicality.

However, it is too early to say that the game has succeeded.

After all, this is a free game. Downloads don't mean anything. A lot of people download it with the wind. It comes with a "free” stunt. Probably won't play two pairs anymore. It can't be converted into a core player, let alone recharge in the game.

Whether Watchpioneer recovers costs or not, the key is to look at two factors, one is the long-term retention rate of the players and the other is the paying data of the players.

As long as one of these two data doesn't work, then Watchpioneer is still mostly cold. After all, as a VR game, it invests a lot more than a PC game. If you can't recover the cost, it becomes a total cost recovery.

……

After downloading Watch Pioneer, players can't wait to get into the game experience.

A group of FPS gamers.

“The Watch Pioneer is open for download today. Is there a team here to play? ”

“Is that the free VR game I was talking about? Open for download today? ”

“Good. I've been waiting for a long time. Let's go! ”

“Free? Who dares to play free VR games with such a big pen? ”

“Who else, Chan? ”

“Sure enough, as long as there's a game designer in the country, the first reaction is him. ”

“He's finally starting to play FPS! Before, I thought, this guy Chen Jiao is a game designer. Hand games and PC games are all made into one model. When do you make FPS? And it really waited, faster than I thought! ”

“Get up and say it in the game! How much is everyone's Thunder Game Pass? Hurry up, buddy! ”
