Please note that Sensor Tower has not included Pokemon GO in its top. Last year, SuperData analysts wrote that this title accounted for 84% of all revenue from AR games.
We believe that Sensor Tower does not consider Pokemon GO to be an AR game, since its mechanics are based on geolocation, not augmented reality.
