Sina Tech, 8/11/09
During its 2009 H2 earnings call, Chinese online game developer and operator Perfect World (Nasdaq: PWRD) CFO, Kelvin Lau, said that his company's MMORPG Chi Bi had the highest ARPU, followed by the MMORPGs Zhu Xian, Legend of Martial Arts, and Battle of the Immortals. Hot Dance Party, the company's online casual game promoted in cooperation with Baidu (Nasdaq: BIDU), is still in beta, and has not officially made a large scale launch, although the game may see results in the next quarter. However, Perfect World predicted that the cooperative project is only supplementary, and will not represent mainstream income for the company.
