When compiling the rating, Toto looked at which companies' games were among the top hundred highest-grossing in the country. He did not say how much the publishers earned.
Top 9 Western Mobile Publishers in Japan:
1. Playrix;
2. Niantic;
3. Dream Games;
4. Activision;
5. Peak Games;
6. King;
7. Supercell;
8. Roblox;
9. Metacore.
Toto noted that six companies from the rating currently do not have a Japanese office. We are talking about Playrix, Dream Games, Peak Games, King, Supercell and Metacore. According to the analyst, it is usually very difficult for foreign companies to succeed in Japan without opening a regional division or finding local partners. But, apparently, it is not impossible.
