In its consolidated earnings reports for the first half of the fiscal year 2025, Bandai Namco announced net sales of 611,391 million yen, up 21.8 percent over last year, and a whopping 188 percent profit increase.

As reported by GameBiz (translation via Automaton-Media), Elden Ring and the recent Shadow of the Erdtree continue to perform well for the publisher. Even more impressive is Gundam Breaker 4, which had a strong start, and Dragon Ball: Sparking! ZERO. Though the latter falls outside the report’s period, it sold over three million units in its first 24 hours.

Mobile titles for Dragon Ball and One Piece also recorded strong revenue worldwide. Operating profit during this period reached 113,670 million yen, an increase of 73.6 percent year over year and ordinary profit was 115,553 million yen (up by 56.3 percent). Net profit is at 80,727 million yen, up 54.7 percent over last year.

It should be interesting to see how the second half of the fiscal year shapes up with Synduality: Echo of Ada, Tales of Graces f Remastered and Freedom Wars Remastered coming up. Stay tuned for updates.
