By the end of May App2Top.ru Together with AppMagic, I have prepared a report on the most popular and earning mobile games in the world.

The most downloaded games of the month

The leader of the month in the number of downloads was the Hair Challenge runner from Rollic Games. The game, in which a gamer collects wigs on an obstacle course, topped three tops at once. In total, it has gained over 40 million installs: 37 million on Google Play and 6 million on the App Store.

In May, four new games were among the most downloaded. One of them, Paper Fold, was already in the top a month ago, but only by the number of downloads on iOS. This time it was also included in the top ten most downloaded projects on Android.

Let’s go through the rest in more detail.

Bounce and collect

A puzzle released in April by the French publisher VOODOO. The goal of the game is to collect a certain number (or more) of balls in a glass.

At the end of the month:

  • ranked 10th in downloads on both platforms — 10.3 million;
  • took 2nd place in terms of downloads on iOS — 5.1 million .

Muscle Rush

A variation of the runner from SayGames. Here the user plays for an athlete who needs to become as muscular as possible. During the obstacle course race, he must pick up cans of energy and protein, and at the same time defeat the oncoming hooligans. With each jar, his muscles get bigger. The title was released in March 2021.

At the end of the month , the game took 7th place in terms of downloads on Google Play — 13.9 million.

Rob Master 3D

A robber simulator in which the user must have time to rob houses, shops and cars without catching anyone’s eye. Published at the end of April by the Turkish company Alictus.

At the end of the month , the game took 10th place in terms of downloads on iOS — 3.2 million .

The highest-grossing games of the month

The top of the most monetary titles remained virtually unchanged.

The highest-grossing game in May was PUBG Mobile, once again located on the first lines in two tops: total and revenue on iOS. Title revenue from both platforms amounted to $148 million (on iOS – $119.5 million).

But the most profitable game on Google Play turned out to be Garena Free Fire, which rose by two points ($59 million on Android, but $22 million on iOS). The previous leader Coin Master took third place ($44 million on Android and $29 million on iOS).

I won back the positions of Genshin Impact a little, and in every top. Now it is the third game by total revenue on both platforms, the third — on iOS and the fifth — on Google Play ($57 million and $37 million, respectively). The largest increase in May came on Google Play, where the game rose by nine points at once (its Android revenue for the month rose by $ 13 million).
