The game from Bethesda based on the Fallout series takes first place in the American Google Play top – just a week after the release.
The situation is similar in other key Western charts. Everywhere the game occupies a position from the first to the third in terms of downloads. At the box office, the situation is slightly worse: the simulator of a post-apocalyptic shelter has not managed to climb to the first place yet in any country.

Recall that Fallout Shelter showed similar dynamics on iOS.
The game debuted there on June 15 of this year and within a few days after the launch it hit the leading positions in the charts of the main Western markets. At the end of the first two weeks, it turned out that she earned $5.1 million, and sales and downloads are steadily declining.
After the release of the iOS update, title downloads increased again.

The authors of the project predicted such an outcome in advance. Immediately after the launch of the game, they said that the project was planned as a kind of gift to fans of the Fallout series.And they mentioned that interest in the title should soon fade away, since there are almost no mechanics for monetization, retention and user involvement in it that are traditional for shareware games.
