Fingersoft has confirmed that its original mobile hit, Hill Climb Racing, has surpassed 2B downloads globally, more than 13 years after its release. First launched in 2012, the physics-based driving game continues to attract over 4M daily players, supported by ongoing updates and live operations.
The milestone positions Fingersoft’s Hill Climb Racing as a rare long-term gaming industry milestone, particularly in the mobile sector, where most titles see short lifecycles. Fingersoft said the game remains the foundation of its business and the cornerstone of its broader franchise strategy.
“We are truly humbled and grateful for our players all over the world,” said CEO Teemu Närhi, noting that sustained player engagement reshaped the company’s long-term plans for the title.
