The CEO claimed that much of Paradox’s work in 2019 had been focused on “creating the best possible conditions” for the games it will release in the future. Instead, they are investments in future projects, i.e., games that we intend to release and see revenues from in the coming years.” “Only a small part of this year’s investments has been for games that were launched and have generated revenue in 2019. Paradox will publish Romero Games’ Empire of Sin. “Over the past twelve months, we have invested more than ever in game development as well as marketing and organization,” she said.

However, Ljungerud said 2019 – in which Paradox released strategy games Imperator: Rome, Age of Wonders: Planetfall and Surviving the Aftermath – was mainly about building for the future. Revenue for the year increased by 14% to SEK 1.3b ($130m) and profit before tax for the year increased by 3% from the previous year to SEK 467m ($47m).

In the company’s report for the 2019 calendar year, CEO Ebba Ljungerud claimed that more than 12 million users play a Paradox game each month.
