Let us explain why and when this could be beneficial
When is a good time to sell a game?
If the game requires too much attention and does not pay off
Maintaining and developing a game is a very laborious endeavor. It is especially difficult to do this when the game is not growing anymore, and its income constantly stagnates. It’s easier to sell the game and focus on more promising projects.
If for some reasons the game cannot be supported anymore
Abandoned games tend to fall slowly but steadily in their income. The game should be sold, the sooner the better, while it has not reached the bottom in terms of income, and the money received can be immediately directed to new and profitable projects.
If the game audience and cash flow is rising, now is the time to sell it
(before it’s fall)
A good indicator to establish a gaming product’s value is generally based on its gross last 3-month sales records which is directly proportional in the maximum price. If the game has reached a record profit, then this is a signal that at the current stage it can be sold for the maximum price.
