The Matagot international edition of Dancing Queen was released in June 2025. I signed the game with them mid 2023. At the time the rough plan was to release the game by end 2024. I received my designer's advance shortly after signing the game. That was nice. Not all publishers do that for their designers. I am lucky.
I get half yearly royalty reports from Matagot, to let me know how many copies have been sold, and how much royalty they will pay me. From the release date in June till the end of September, 1700+ copies have been sold. That's certainly much much much better than what I can achieve by myself as a tiny indie publisher. They have sold more in 3 months than I have sold in 3 years. That's the difference between an established publisher and indie publisher.
