July brought some noticeable shake-ups in the top earning ranks, and one of them came with a monocle. Let's break it down
After months of dominance, Tencent's Honor of Kings remains a fixture at the top of iOS and overall charts, this time with an estimated $122M in net revenue worldwide. That's down from June's $137M, but still enough to hold its spot in China and Southeast Asia's hearts — even as it slips to #3 on the combined chart for the month.
The crown for July's overall earnings actually went to Last War from FunPlus, which pulled in $128M combined, up from $109M in June and driven by strong spending on both platforms. It's the first time the game has overtaken both Honor of Kings and Whiteout Survival in the combined ranking.
Speaking of Whiteout Survival, Century Games' chilly survival sim dipped to #5 overall with $117M, despite holding steady on Google Play at $39M. The bigger climb came from Monopoly GO!, which jumped from #4 to #2 overall thanks to $125M in combined revenue — a hefty $19M gain over June.
Other notable moves: Royal Match surged on iOS to #4 with $86M, matching Honor of Kings in combined total, while PUBG Mobile slid to #6 overall. Returning titles like Delta Force and Westward Journey added fresh-ish faces to the iOS chart, with Delta Force landing a respectable $59M combined.
All told, July's top 10 earned an estimated $1B after store fees — up 11% from June — positioning it as one of the strongest months we've seen so far this year.
ChatGPT's mobile app is no longer alone in AI, but Appfigures estimates show it is still the revenue leader by a wide margin.
HBO Max filled its biggest remaining European gaps in 2026. The UK brought the biggest mobile audience, while Germany and Switzerland showed stronger revenue depth.
