Halfbrick Announce Fruit Ninja Has Sold 2 Million Copies On iPhone


Halfbrick have announced that Fruit Ninja has sold over 2 Million Copies on the iPhone in 6 months. the game reached 1 Million copies sold in 3 months, and then sold another 1 million copies again in 3 months. Halfbrick have also released some stats from the game, Total Fruit Sliced Worldwide - 24,342,983,809, Average Classic Mode High Score - 196.60, and Average Zen Mode High Score – 194.68.

Press Release

September 23rd, 2010 – Approximately 3 months ago, we made the announcement that Fruit Ninja had surpassed one million copies sold on iPhone. One million sold is an extraordinary achievement for any game on any platform, but everyone at Halfbrick is simply ecstatic to do it again with the same game in the same amount of time.

Fruit Ninja surpassed one million in 74 days, and reaching the second million from that point only took an additional 78 days. It’s on a roll, and Halfbrick has the entire world to thank for their incredible support of the simplest and most satisfying iPhone game on the App store.

Since release, we have also created a brand new website and blog to keep Halfbrick fans in the loop about all our major releases. Simple head towww.halfbrick.com and sign up to the RSS feed for regular updates!

To celebrate the two million, we did some digging. Some Holmes-like research. Here’s some pretty astonishing statistics to munch on while you slice up your next game!

Total Fruit Sliced, Worldwide - 24,342,983,809. That’s 24 BILLION. Extrapolating from that data, we can conclude that over 10 million tonnes of fruit have been sliced around the world. Let’s hope that it all fell into a giant juicing machine to create sweet, nutritious drinks for kids around the world as they go about their studies. Knowledge = Ninja Power, kids!

Average Classic Mode High Score - 196.60 – We hear daily reports of players unable to crack 200, but for the trained Fruit Ninja elite, it’s not uncommon to regularly achieve scores of twice that amount.

Average Zen Mode High Score – 194.68 – There is a physical limit to the achievable score in Zen Mode due to the timer, but 194 for an average is impressively high. A seasoned player may only score 220 – 230 on a regular basis, so 194 on average makes the Halfbrick team incredibly proud of its ninja apprentices!

Press Release

London, UK. London-based development studio Mediatonic has announced that Who’s That Flying!?, its latest title for PlayStation Portable Minis, will be available to purchase and download from the PSN store from Tuesday 12th October 2010, priced £3.99, €4.99 and $5.99 respectively.

In Who’s That Flying!?, players take control of the mysterious and powerful creature known only as the "Guardian of Earth". His steely eye and HYPER-POWERED LASER ARM have kept the citizens of Earth safe for generations (as well as proving a hit with the ladies). With all his awesome TALENT and FLAIR, surely it would be IMPOSSIBLE for a sudden and devastating invasion of colossal Doom Beasts to descend on the Earth’s cities and cause havoc without his knowledge? No, it’s not, and the fact that he was posing for photos at the time has nothing to do with it.

To save the Guardian Of Earth’s reputation, as well as the Earth itself, players must not only defend the cities from ravenous hordes of Doom Beasts, but must also defend the Guardian of Earth against accusations of gross incompetence from the Galactic Council of Justice - and this is all BEFORE players can even start to get to the bottom of just who OR what is really behind the invasion.

Who’s That Flying!? Will be available to purchase and download from the PSN store from Tuesday 12th October 2010, priced £3.99, €4.99 and $5.99 according to region.
