Gameloft Boasts 10 Million Paid Downloads on App Store

Posted January 6, 2010 by David Radd

Gameloft today announced that it has reached the 10 million paid download mark since launching on the App Store in July 2008. The best selling titles were N.O.V.A.- Near Orbit Vanguard Alliance and James Cameron’s Avatar, both of which sold well in the U.S., Europe and Japan.

“We have had a remarkable year on the App Store,” said Michel Guillemot, chairman and CEO, Gameloft. “Our success is defined not only by great production values, but a vested interest in bringing to market games that are commercially friendly and appeal to a mass consumer base. Taking into account that the App Store is only 18 months old, 10 million paid downloads is an achievement we are quite proud of.”

Gameloft launched 35 games on the App Store in 2009, making 55 games in total for the iPhone and iPod Touch.
