Respawn Entertainment had just launched the highly anticipated Apex Legends Mobile a couple of days ago. And it seems like that game is already a success since it brought in 4.8 million US Dollars in user spending within this short period of time.
For those unaware, the mobile port of Apex Legends is the Android/iOS version of the popular PC title. It is a battle royale style game with unique characters that have different abilities. This game was first released back on 17th May 2022, while its Beta had been live for sometime now in limited regions. But just a week after its launch, the mobile game generated 4.8 million US Dollars in just a week with most of the revenue coming from in game purchases for cosmetic items like weapons, legends skins, Battle Pass, and more.
Notably, we had also previously reported on Apex Legends Mobile becoming the most downloaded game in more than 60 countries as well. The latest news arrives from known analytics based firm Sensor Tower who shared the estimate of the player spending in the game. It also offered the breakdown of player expenditure based on the region, with the US ranking first as users spent 2.1 million US Dollars in the game, accounting for 44 percent of total revenue.
This was followed by Japan and Thailand. This marks an impressive milestone by Respawn Entertainment, since its rival PUGB Mobile only brought in around 600,000 US Dollars in the first week of its release back in 2018. Although, both of these figures are dwarfed by COD: Mobile, which brought in a whopping 14.8 million US Dollars in its first week.
