The acceleration came almost entirely from the Digital Entertainment segment, where recurring eFootball revenue stacked on top of premium launches. That mix of free-to-play monetization and full-price game sales — a pattern also visible in in-game purchase spending trends across the industry — gave Konami multiple revenue streams firing at once.
Konami Revenue by Business Segment
Digital Entertainment dominates Konami’s financials, generating more than three-quarters of all revenue in FY2026. The segment alone added ¥65.8 billion in new revenue year-on-year — more than the Gaming & Systems and Sports divisions combined. Digital Entertainment’s business profit reached ¥136 billion, a 37.5% increase, pushing segment margins from 32.4% to 36.7%.
| Segment | FY2025 Revenue | FY2026 Revenue | YoY Change |
|---|---|---|---|
| Digital Entertainment | ¥305.2B | ¥371.0B | +21.5% |
| Arcade Game | ¥24.1B* | ¥27.6B | — |

The Gaming & Systems segment (casino equipment) saw its operating profit drop 50.4% to ¥3.65 billion despite marginal revenue gains, primarily from higher costs tied to new cabinet launches. The Sports division — Konami’s fitness club business — stayed essentially flat at ¥48.9 billion.
How Many Downloads Does eFootball Have?
eFootball is Konami’s widest-reaching product. The free-to-play football game crossed 1 billion cumulative downloads on April 9, 2026.

eFootball is available on PC, PlayStation 4 and 5, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, Android, and iOS, with a Nintendo Switch 2 version (eFootball Kick Off!) planned for summer 2026. By comparison, EA Sports FC 25 averaged just 10,442 concurrent Steam players by January 2026, while eFootball’s cross-platform reach dwarfs that figure by orders of magnitude.
Konami Franchise Sales: Metal Gear, Silent Hill, and More
FY2026 was a breakout year for Konami’s premium game catalogue. Metal Gear Solid Δ: Snake Eater launched on August 28, 2025 and passed 1 million copies in its first week. By March 2026, it had shipped over 2 million units. Silent Hill f, released in September 2025, moved 1 million copies within days of launch. Broader industry data on mobile game sales and downloads shows a similar pattern of fast-selling launches across all platforms.
| Franchise | Lifetime Units (Mar 2026) | Recent Milestone |
|---|---|---|
| eFootball (downloads) | 1 billion+ | Crossed 1B in April 2026 |
| Metal Gear | 66.1 million | Snake Eater remake: 2M+ shipped |

Metal Gear jumped from 63.3 million (June 2025) to 66.1 million (March 2026), with the Snake Eater remake driving most of that gain.
Konami Market Cap and Stock Performance
Konami’s stock hit an all-time high of ¥26,645 in October 2025, driven by strong H1 FY2026 earnings and positive reception to the Snake Eater and Silent Hill f launches. The stock has since pulled back to ¥19,190 as of May 21, 2026. At $16.6 billion in market capitalization, Konami sits between Capcom ($21 billion) and Square Enix ($5.7 billion) among Japanese gaming publishers.
| Metric | Value |

Where Does Konami Generate Revenue by Region?
Japan remains Konami’s largest market by a wide margin, driven by domestic-heavy segments like the Sports business (fitness clubs) and Arcade Games. More than 70% of Konami’s revenue comes from Japan — a far higher domestic concentration than peers like Capcom or Nintendo. The broader shifts in PC gaming spending by region e Steam’s global user distribution provide additional context for how Western market dynamics affect Konami’s console and PC sales outside Japan.
| Region | 9M FY2025 Revenue (Apr–Dec 2024) | Share |
|---|---|---|
| Japan | ¥219.1B | 70.5% |
| Estados Unidos | ¥56.1B | 18.0% |
| Europe | ¥21.9B | 7.0% |
| Asia & Oceania (ex-Japan) | ¥13.7B | 4.4% |

Konami’s dormant IP library — including Castlevania, Suikoden, Contra, Bomberman, and Zone of the Enders — remains largely untapped. Metal Gear Solid Master Collection Vol. 2 and Silent Hill: Townfall are both expected in the back half of 2026. The Gaming & Systems segment is projected to recover margin-wise, with FY2027 operating profit guidance of ¥6.5 billion versus FY2026’s ¥3.65 billion. These upcoming releases will be tracked alongside retro and remake sales trends that have defined the current generation of Japanese publisher performance.
