Rise of Kingdoms Revenue Data Officially Released
It’s no secret that many RoK players call the Rise of Kingdoms game P2W aka Pay-To-Win. So, not a few people see this as a competition game between sultans around the world.
Lilith Games as a developer keeps trying to make this game as fair as possible. Until there is no significant disparity between F2P (Free to Play) and P2W, even though in fact their efforts will still be protested by players.
Every time there is a new feature update given by Lilith, of course there will always be debates & theories of the P2W vs F2P controversy in the Rise of Kingdoms game. For example, changes to MGE and Wheel of Fortune which can now choose the available commanders according to taste.
Actually, why RoK feels so P2W compared to other mobile games such as Mobile Legends and PUBG, which mostly prioritize players’ skills/hand speed, is that all events can be won with as many top-up bundles as possible.
Example: in Mobile Legends, no matter how many diamonds you top-up, if you want to lead the Leaderboard, you still have to have special skills to win every match.
But in Rise of Kingdoms, let’s take the event as an example “Now or Never” or MGE unlocks, which requires a lot of Speedups to rank 1st & reach 180 gold statues.
Sensor Tower released revenue data for Rise of Kingdoms and several other apps in the game category on the App Store & Google Play for the period June 2022. As shown in the image above, RoK is ranked 10th on the App Store and not in the top 10 on the Play Store. .
