Lesta Games can earn 10-12 billion rubles on the "World of Ships", "World of Tanks" and Tanks Blitz this year
Valeria Tsygankova, publishing director of the World of Ships, shared the figures in an interview with Kommersant. According to her, about as much game users will spend on the purchase of premium accounts and internal currency.
Tsygankova noted that about 15-20% of 10-12 billion rubles will go to the “World of Ships”. She did not specify how much the “World of Tanks” will bring, and how much — Tanks Blitz, but added that Tanks Blitz generates a “substantial” amount.
Separately, Tsygankova said that Lesta Games never prepared for the fact that Wargaming could leave Russia and Belarus and transfer the business of operating its games to a St. Petersburg studio. When this happened, Lesta Games decided to first establish communication with employees and explain that there would be no layoffs. Only then did she start developing a business strategy.
