Tencent is pleased with the performance of the game. Including its monetization.
Arena of Valor on Nintendo Switch
The Chinese giant does not disclose specific figures, in addition to downloads, but clarifies that they are willing to pay more in the console version than in the mobile version.
Tencent also notes that Arena of Valor has already formed a “healthy audience” on Switch, whose representatives play the project every day. The online project is unknown, but in an interview with Variety Edward Gan, the Arena of Valor product manager, assures that for a five-on-five match, players are recruited in 15-30 seconds.
Arena of Valor was released on the new Nintendo console on September 25. The project, originally created for mobile platforms, has been completely redesigned for Switch. According to Tencent, it uses new assets and introduces a new management scheme.
It is difficult to say how significantly the versions of the game differ from the point of view of meta. Both versions are distributed for free. But, according to Edward, the team is very selective about what kind of game content and how exactly to transfer from the mobile Arena of Valor to the console.
