June Mobile Game Downloads: Arrows, Free Fire Max Lead
Appmagic data published via MobileGamer lists the top mobile game downloads for June 2026 (excluding China’s fractured Android market). Multiple 'Arrows' titles dominated downloads—three placed in the top ten, with Easybrain (described as Miniclip/Tencent‑owned) responsible for two and another Easybrain Arrows title logging about 16.4 million installs in fifth place. Garena’s Free Fire Max led broad-volume downloads at roughly 23 million installs, while Roblox recovered to about 19 million. Hungry Studio’s Block Blast continued a multi-month decline (from >26m in March to under 14m in June). The article also lists ranks 11–20, noting Meowdoku (Learnings) at ~10.1m and several sports titles climbing amid World Cup interest.
Monthly install rankings show genre and publisher-level performance (UA momentum, marketing effectiveness and churn) relevant to mobile game publishers, advertisers and UA planners, but do not represent a major platform or policy change.
