In the latest quarterly report Konami announced an annual decline in revenues of just 0.6% to $ 1.8 billion.

This was largely made possible by record revenue from mobile games, especially Professional Baseball Spirits A and portable version PES 2023… She also showed herself perfectly Momotaro Dentetsu: Showa, Heisei, Reiwa mo Teiban! for Switch – in a few weeks its circulation exceeded 2.5 million copies.
