Tencent’s Honor of Kings remained the top-grossing title, while Roblox, Microfun’s Gossip Harbor and PUBG Mobile also posted strong results. Türkiye’s Smash Fest (Flow Games) achieved a breakout month with 10.2M installs and a large month-over-month increase. Across the industry, mobile games generated $6.8B in gross revenue and 4.5B new downloads in July 2026.
