Castle Busters: A New Game-Changer in the Artillery Shooter Market

Castle Busters by Voodoo started showing the first signs of future success back in February and, through continuous growth, reached $4M in monthly revenue in April 2026.

As its name suggests, the game truly busted the Artillery Shooter market, growing the subgenre 4.6x year-over-year and accounting for 72% of its revenue in April 2026 🤩

The last time the market saw similar growth was back in 2022 with the release of DDTank Adventure (弹弹堂大冒险), which peaked at $14M in monthly revenue before quickly declining afterwards.

Voodoo previously experimented with Artillery Shooter titles, with Archery Clash! reaching $4.9M in lifetime revenue since 2023. This time, however, the company shifted from Hypercasual to a more Midcore gameplay approach.

Today, we continue watching Castle Busters climb the Midcore weekly grossing chart, reaching №66 last week.

Would it be able to sustain its growth? Let’s keep an eye on it 😉
