Lords Mobile, IGG’s massively popular strategy MMO, has just turned five.
Since launching back in 2016 it’s been downloaded well over a billion times on Android alone, as well as racking up an impressive 6 million user reviews on Google Play, and another million on the App Store. It even made the jump to PC in 2019.
In the year that it arrived, meanwhile, Lords Mobile was named the Best Competitive Game at the Google Play Awards, and nominated for the Best Multiplayer Game award in the following year.
