Squad Busters, the engaging MOBA from Finnish superdeveloper Supercell, has experienced its share of highs and lows since its launch. Initially, the game delighted fans with its fun gameplay and the inclusion of Supercell's beloved characters, but it faced challenges with revenue and other key performance metrics. However, it has managed to turn things around and stabilize over time.
Now, Supercell is setting its sights on the lucrative Chinese market for Squad Busters. This move might seem surprising, but it's a strategy that has proven effective for Supercell before. Take Brawl Stars, for example, which also struggled initially but saw significant success after its launch in China back in 2019. The Chinese market played a crucial role in Brawl Stars' eventual triumph.

There are strict regulations limiting the number of foreign games that can be approved for release, making each launch a high-stakes endeavor. Additionally, the landscape has evolved since Brawl Stars' debut. When Brawl Stars entered China, it was seen as a novel and fresh offering. Since then, Chinese developers have released innovative games that have gained global acclaim, setting a high bar for Squad Busters as it prepares to enter this competitive market.
