Pokemon Go hits $600 million revenue mark in record time

Himanshu, 22 October 2016

While it's growth may be slowing, Pokemon Go is continuing setting new records. Case in point: a new report from market research firm App Annie, which says that Pokemon Go has now become the fastest game to hit $600 million in revenues.

According to the data released by the firm, the game hit the milestone in around 3 months, surpassing other extremely popular games like Candy Crush Saga, Puzzle & Dragons, and Clash of Clans that took 200, 400, and 500 days, respectively, to achieve the same revenue figure.

The report also revealed that around 45% of the total time spent on Android games in the US in Q3 this year was spent playing Pokemon Go. This compares to 55% time users spent for the next 19 games combined.
