The MobileGamer portal has compiled a ranking of mobile game publishers with the highest revenues from IAP in the first half of 2024. It was based on data from the analytical service AppMagic.
MONOPOLY GO!
No surprises here with the first place going to the Chinese giant Tencent, which earned $3.2 billion. Notably, Scopely, which came in second, saw a significant increase in revenue—thanks to the success of MONOPOLY GO!, it earned almost three times more than it did during the same period last year. Supercell also showed strong performance. Its revenue for the first half of 2024 ($753 million) was just slightly less than the revenue for all of 2023 ($762 million).
