Perfect World Games' open-world RPG NTE: Neverness to Everness has generated over 33.5 billion yen in two months since its April 29 global launch, representing about a quarter of the company's fiscal 2025 game revenue, though the company expects a net loss for the first half due to marketing expenses.
Perfect World Games' free-to-play open-world RPG NTE: Neverness to Everness launched globally on April 29, 2026, after a Chinese pre-release on April 23. The game, developed by Hotta Studio, quickly exceeded 1.4 billion yuan (about 33.5 billion yen) in worldwide sales within two months, with over 60% of sales coming from PC and Android versions. The company reported that global sales have surpassed domestic sales in China, a rare achievement for a Chinese free-to-play open-world title, with Japan leading overseas markets. Sensor Tower analysis showed Japan generated 32% of global mobile revenue in the first month, the highest share of any region, while the United States led downloads at 14%. Perfect World Games also topped ad impression rankings among video game publishers during the same period.
Since launch, Perfect World Games has maintained a steady stream of live-service content. The Ver.1.1 'Dream-Wandering Corridor' update on June 3 added limited S-rank character Requiem, a Porsche collaboration featuring the 918 Spyder vehicle, a new area called Hinata Island, and an offline event in Akihabara. A subsequent update in June introduced another limited S-rank character, Kaos, and a battle royale mode called Fight Club. The game rose to first place in Japan's iOS game sales ranking, and the Ver.1.1 update set new single-day sales records on both domestic and overseas sides.
Despite the strong sales, Perfect World Games expects a net loss for the first half of fiscal 2025 due to marketing expenses. The game's revenue already represents about 25% of the company's fiscal 2025 game revenue, indicating a major hit that is still in its early months of live operations.
