Call of Duty: Mobile has obviously dominated this month with its 100 million mark of download in its first week after release. This has blurred the fact that another Mobile game title was insanely popular in September this year. Here are what made headlines last month.
The September craze - Mario Kart Tour
Mario Kart Tour was the most downloaded mobile game in September 2019 with around 86.2 million installed times. The game kicked off with a good start with 20 million downloads on its first day – according to Sensor Tower.
Though reaching a fantastic number, the money Mario Kart Tour generated was not that impressive. The game earned just $1 million in revenue from those 20 million downloads, only 25% of what Fire Emblem Heroes generated on its day one.
The #2 on the list is Sand Balls from SayGames with more than 39.6 million installs. Interestingly, the game was most popular in India which accounts for 12 percent of installs. Brazil comes second with 10 percent.
Fun Race 3D from the publisher Good Job Games takes the next place while PUBG Mobile is ranked 4th. It is hard to understand why an incredibly popular game like PUBG Mobile would not take the top 3 place in popularity during September.
Garena Free Fire from Garena completes the top 5 as a rising game. With the recent activities to reach further than just the SEA region, Free Fire is making its move to keenly contest with other FPS mobile games like PUBG Mobile and Call of Duty: Mobile.
What will make the top this month? The #1 seems to be too obvious as Call of Duty: Mobile has made a world craze just one week after release. However, other mobile games will have to fight for it to get a high placing on the list this October.
