InnoGames' browser-based and mobile strategy title, Forge of Empires, has earned €500 million ($568 million) in lifetime revenue since its launch in 2012.
Of that total, over half of it was raised in the last two years. The game reached €250 million in lifetime revenue back in 2017 (https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2017-05-31-forge-of-empires-reaches-250m-lifetime-revenue), following successful releases on iOS and Android.
German developer InnoGames has over 400 employees, and saw record sales in 2018 with its mobile revenue up by 37%, according to PocketGamer.biz (https://www.pocketgamer.biz/news/69962/innogames-revenue-at-all-time-high-as-mobile-sales-grow-37-in-2018/). Last year, it closed its secondary Dusseldorf location (https://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2018-06-11-innogames-to-close-second-location-in-dusseldorf), merging the majority of its team to its Hamberg HQ.
The company is currently looking to fill a number of open positions in Hamburg, both on Forge of Empires and other existing titles, but also for work on a new, unannounced mobile MMO.
