What dominated global charts in June26?
Top Games of June 2026, Downloads vs. Revenue. 444#
Hey Friends, Greetings from Bangalore 💗
From top downloads to breakout revenue earners, a snapshot of Jun26 WW global chart:
Top Grossing Titles: Honor of Kings holds #1 with $110.6M (down 29% from $155.9M in May), followed by Whiteout Survival with $109.1M, followed by Royal Match at #3 with $102.7M.
Top Downloads: Arrows: Puzzle Escape at no.1 with 25.3M+, followed by Amaze GO! at #2 with 23.2M+ (listed as Arrows GO! in May, same publisher, same rank), Free Fire MAX at #3 with 22.7M+ downloads
Games to track in July
World-cup season: eFootball, KONAMI climbs 6 spots to #12 revenue ($43M), its best month ever. World Cup attention is lifting the whole football category in downloads,
Soccer Superstar (+20 spots)
Football League 2026 (+21)
EA SPORTS FC Mobile 26 (+9). eFootball is the only one converting that attention into IAP at scale. July tells us who retains.
Arrow Puzzle: Tap Puzzle Games, climbs from #10 to #5 (16.4M installs).
Three titles with the same mechanic now sit in the top 5 downloads. Two of them share a publisher :?
Tasty Travels: Merge Game, the playtime leader at 117.2 mins per user, earning $24.7M.
Royal Match does $102.5M on 90.1 mins.
Candy Crush does its number on the lowest playtime on the board, 63.2 mins.
vs May, What Shifted:
Honor of Kings sheds $45M and still wins. A 29% IAP drop would end most games’ reign. Tencent’s MOBA is prone to big swings, and $110.6M is still well above its Nov-Dec 2025 dip below $90M.
Whiteout Survival has posted roughly $110M for four straight months.
Royal Match, roughly $100M for three.
Last War: Survival declines for a third month, $71.4M (down from $80.7M). Downloads are at their lowest since November 2023, when the project began scaling. The earlier D2C hypothesis still holds, but the UA pullback looks like the bigger driver.
Candy Crush Saga drops to just over $77M, its weakest month since April 2022. On AppMagic’s May chart it sat at $90.4M.
PUBG Mobile falls to just over $62M. It was $118.2M in February.
Brawl Stars exits the top 20 at under $27M, after three months in the $34-38M range.
