South Korean publishing giant Netmarble launched its smash hit mobile game Lineage 2: Revolution in Western markets just under two weeks ago and it’s already off to a strong start.

The title is best known for its early dominance of the South Korean grossing charts and raking in some $176 million in its first month. That figure only includes revenues generated by players in South Korea.
