Pokemon TCG secured a strong second position with $64 million in revenue, while Love and Deepspace, a popular "female gacha" title, claimed third place at $55.2 million.
Conversely, Honkai Star Rail saw a decline in earnings, falling to $50.8 million. Zenless Zone Zero also experienced a downturn, with revenue halved from $57.9 million to $26.3 million.
It's important to note that the rankings reflect revenue generated solely from mobile platforms. The report also acknowledges that Chinese Android revenue is estimated using a multiplier based on iOS data due to the absence of Google Play in the region.
