Ending a Historic First Month, Pokémon GO Has Passed $200 Million in Worldwide Revenue

Sensor Tower reports that Pokémon GO generated more than $200 million in net revenue during its first 30 days on iOS and Android, surpassing previous top earners like Candy Crush Soda Saga ($28.5 million) and Clash Royale ($111 million).
The game's revenue spiked after its Japan launch on day 18, contributing to its dominance.
Comparing these launches illustrates how the definition of a hit game has evolved; Pokémon GO earned over seven times more than Candy Crush Soda Saga in its first month.
Daily engagement remains high at 26 minutes, indicating strong user retention.
This historic first month sets a new benchmark for mobile game launches, with expectations high for Niantic's future updates to maintain player interest.
