Publisher Perfect World Games updated shareholders on the performance of its open-world anime RPG Neverness to Everness (NTE) on April 30, a day following the game’s global release. According to the company, first-day sales exceeded 100 million Chinese Yuan (roughly $14.64 million USD), though it’s unclear if this figure includes sales from the Chinese version of the game too.
Going into specifics, the publisher says Japan and the United States account for the largest revenue shares, while South Korea’s share is exceeding expectations. In terms of platform breakdown, PC and PlayStation 5 users account for roughly 75% of NTE’s revenue.
The reception to Neverness to Everness has been generally positive, with data showing that players are spending more time exploring the urban world than engaging in combat. In that respect, Perfect World Games is considering introducing paid city-themed content that includes character skins, clothing, houses, and cars.
With regards to the game’s future, the developers are taking player feedback and concerns into account, and plan to address them in future updates. Versions 1.1 and 1.2, for starters, will improve performance and usability to make the game more accessible. Perfect World Games also plans on improving gameplay to enhance its appeal and increase player retention.
Neverness to Everness is available on Android, iOS, PlayStation 5, as well as Windows and macOS (downloadable from the official website).
Too bad the gacha system bull and the game itself is pretty boring to me at least. If they would change the fact that you have to basically double roll RNG to anything good is what really makes me not like the game. Out of all the preregistration rewards and tutorial rewards I only got a single S rank character and that’s only because of the after 50 rolls you get to pick one..
It’s a gacha game not GTA V/Red Dead Redemption 2. What do you expect? Every popular gacha game is like that. Genshin, Honkai Impact, Honkai Star Rail, Zenless Zone Zero, Arknight, Arknight Enfield, Wuthering Waves, PGR, Counter:Side, Aether Gazer, Nikke victory goddess, Blue Archive, Azur Lane, Stella Sora, Snowbreak Containment.
The game is amazing it’s almost like GTA in the graphics are amazing it looks like GTA gameplay a GTA VI gameplay game is fantastic better than all the other games I have this one is the number one of my favorites
I expected a ZZZ clone, and they are indeed EXTREMELY similar.
But so far, NTE feels like an actual game, whereas ZZZ feels like a product.
