The best game of the year according to users
Brawl Stars is the last Supercell project released into the world so far. The global release of the game took place a little less than a year ago — on December 12, 2018. Her softlonch was long and painful. Until the last moment before the launch, questions were raised about its closure. However, at the end of the year of operation, Brawl Stars is in the top three highest—grossing games of the Finnish company.
