This is reported by Sensor Tower analysts.
They also previously noted that PUBG Mobile has seriously increased the rate of earnings. As a result, its quarterly revenue increased by 652% (compared to the third quarter of 2018). The game’s revenue for the period was $496 million.
At the same time, Honor of Kings (the most popular game in China) earned $377 million. Next on the list is Fate/Grand Order with quarterly revenue of $354 million.
Back in August, PUBG Mobile showed revenue growth of 540%. This is taking into account the earnings of Game for Peace — its Chinese version, launched in May. At the end of the summer, PUBG also broke its own audience growth record: 45 million players joined it in a month.
Recall that PUBG Mobile, thanks to a new growth strategy, became the first mobile battle royale, whose revenue exceeded $ 1 billion. Its publisher, as well as the publisher of Honor of Kings, is Tencent.
