In September, Tencent Games generated nearly 200 million US Dollars in revenue. The company brought in this massive figure from just two of its massively successful mobile games, namely Honor of King and PUBG Mobile.
PUBG Mobile and Honor of Kings are Tencent’s top grossing games
The news arrives from market research firm Appmagic. In a recent report, the firm found that Honor of Kings and PUBG Mobile were the top grossing mobile games from the Chinese gaming giant, Tencent. The Honor of Kings was the highest grossing mobile game, while Scopely’s Monopoly Go took the second spot. PUBG Mobile took the third spot, with the three titles bringing in 115.8 million US Dollars, 87.95 million US Dollars, and 83.19 million US Dollars respectively.
In other words, Tencent alone generated almost 200 million US Dollars with just two of its titles. For those unaware, Honor of Kings is a MOBA mobile game similar to DOTA 2 and League of Legends, while PUBG Mobile is a looter shooter battle royale. These are some of the most popular mobile games in the market, with the two games being especially popular in the Asian market.
Apart from these titles, HoYoverse’s Honkai: Star Rail retained its fifth spot in September 2023, but saw an 8 million US Dollar decrease over the previous month. On the other hand, Genshin Impact (another HoYoverse game) saw a 10 million US Dollar rise last month, making it rise to the seventh spot in the overall ranking. NetEase Games’ new Dunk City Dynasty is a new street basketball title, which generated 19.5 million US Dollars last month. This is a Chinese exclusive game at the moment, so it is clear that China is still a major market for these aforementioned games.
