A video game paid for itself… in 15 days
“I think we were able to reinvent ourselves at the right time,” declares the CEO of Gameloft. “We have had two very difficult years, and today we are reaping the fruits. Without this transformation, we would be in big difficulty today,” he explains, praising the work of his teams.
Alexandre de Rochefort also specifies that the game Disney Dreamlight Valley took three years of development, cost a little over 10 million euros, and it was profitable… in just 15 days. “Conversely, we released another video game last year that will take several years to make profitable,” he emphasizes, claiming not to know the secret of such success. “Video games are a very complicated alchemy. You need a little bit of madness to get into it,” he agrees on Europe 1.
