Top 56 Gacha Games by Revenue in January 2024
January 2024 was a worse month for gacha gaming in terms of downloads and revenue compared to December 2023, in part due to Christmas/Holidays hangover.
Overall gacha revenue decreased almost 7% to $320M while overall downloads were down almost 24% to 16M. Remember that these numbers don't include Chinese nor Desktop revenue/downloads.
Let's get straight into the January 2024 list compiled by GachaRevenue!
