A couple weeks back Enad Global 7 issued their financials for the first quarter of 2024 and I was doing something else… I think I was in Ione, CA that day… anyway, I am finally getting around to mentioning it. Enad Global 7 Not that there is a lot to mention.  The report straight up says it was a quiet quarter with no major releases and an continued decline in users for Big Blue Bubble’s My…

First of all, I want put out a hope that whatever Daybreak and EG7 does with this plan for their next EverQuest title, that they don’t call it EverQuest III. I mean, that would still, in hindsight, be better than EverQuest Next… never give something a name that will eventually be wrong, like “next” or “latest” or “state of the art”… but I am really hoping for a solid name that makes for a…

Once more into that video, this time to explore one single chart.  I am not obsessed, I swear.  It was just one of those moments where we got a lot more data than we usually get from game studios, and there was a lot to unpack so I decided to spread it out across a few posts. Another tip for the video: It seems to default to 360p for me, but you can turn it up to a much sharper resolution to get…

Put down 2028 as the next date for a possible new EverQuest MMORPG title. EverQuest – Since 1999 Though maybe don’t write that in indelible ink, as even in yesterday’s Capital Markets Day presentation in Stockholm, EG7 Acting CEO Ji Ham said that he probably should have made that date blurry on the slide because it is way out in the future… there were several “ifs” in his statements… but they…

Enad Global 7, the company that owns and is run by our friends at Daybreak Games, had their Q2 2023 earnings call earlier this week. Enad Global 7 Q2 saw the company’s earnings decline from $54 million (572 million SEK) in Q1 to a little under $45 million (483 million SEK). EG7 Q2 2023 Overall Revenue Chart This decline was in part, but not entirely, due to Big Blue Bubble’s title My Singing…

When I get around to talking about Enad Global 7 and their financials, I am usually quick to point out that the place has effectively become Daybreak Sweden, what with the old Daybreak owners expanding control of the board and putting one of their own in the role of CEO. His acting career continues And, of course, the fact that revenue from the gaming side of the business has been pretty heavily…

The Daybreak Reverse Acquisition

I mentioned this in a comment a week or so back in the bullet points post where I covered Robin Flodin being bought out of Enad Global 7, but I figured it deserved a bit more exploration. Enad Global 7 It has been a little over 18 months since Enad Global 7, a publicly held company based in Sweden, purchased Daybreak for $260 million.  That purchase, and the bright enthusiasm of EG7’s then CEO…

Friday Bullet Points about Daybreak, 64-bit, and the End of the Drunder Server

It is Friday and I don’t have anything worth a full post, so here are a few tidbits mostly about Daybreak. 64-bit EverQuest II I was actually thinking about writing a full post about this, but there isn’t that much to say at this point.  Server and client have been upgraded to 64-bit, which was pretty much necessary to ensure the long term viability of the game. There wasn’t a lot of fanfare…
