Which iOS game in the world was the highest-grossing in the world, which received the largest number of downloads a month ago, and who is the leader in MAU projects in the USA,” App Annie told.
October’s Box Office game on iOS
The highest-grossing game of October on iOS was Game of War. The US market became the drivers of growth. The game also performed well last month in the territories of the UK and, surprise, Japan, where Western titles rarely collect a decent box office.
Aggressive mock-up policy, changing the face of the game – from model Kate Upton to singer Mariah Carey – apparently became a good help in the ascent of the game to the top of the world box office top.
And it is very possible that soon another Machine Zone game will appear in the top – released recently in the world release of Mobile Strike, completely repeating the mechanics of Game of War. Arnold Schwarzenegger became the face of the new game.
The company is a leader in downloads
Electronic Arts has strengthened in the number of total downloads on iOS / Google Play at the top of the world top. She was the leader for a long time, but it was in October that the company led the installations of the top companies on Google Play, where in September it occupied the fourth position.
This happened largely due to the start of “sales” of two projects on large IP. We are talking, of course, about Minions Paradise and Need for Speed No Limits. Minions Paradise turned out to be the second most downloaded game of October on iOS / Google Play, Need for Speed No Limits – the fourth.
By the way, Subway Surfers are in the first place.
American Leader in MAU
App Annie also shared the top games by MAU (USA, iPhone). The situation there is curious. Second place for Smashy Road: Wanted, which we have already written about. The first position, in turn, is for Clash of Clans. Candy Crush Saga closes the top three.
