Speaking of games, this week I crunched the numbers to rank the highest-earning games (and apps, a bit below) in the US for the last month, and guess who came in at #4?
Roblox was the highest-earning mobile game in the US in January, earning more than $86M of net revenue, that's after Apple and Google take their fees, according to our estimates. Candy Crush Saga was right behind it with $51M in January across the App Store and Google Play.
These two have been in command of this list for a while now. I don't expect that to change any time soon.
Coin Master, Garena Free Fire, yes, that Garena, and Bingo Blitz round out the top 5 overall.
We estimate that together, the top 10 highest earners brought in $310M in net revenue from players in the US in January.
The same seven apps held the same seven download spots. Revenue told a different story, and a short-drama app from Singapore crashed the top 10.
MLB app downloads jumped 43% this February while revenue climbed to $3.5M, signaling a stronger season ahead for baseball on mobile.
