Top-Grossing Gacha Games of 2025 Revealed

January 2025 Gacha Game Revenue: Genshin Impact Leads the Pack

The gacha game market continues to generate significant revenue, with January 2025 figures revealing some interesting trends. Genshin Impact, boosted by a major update featuring the Pyro Archon and the highly anticipated Mawuika banner, saw a dramatic surge in revenue, doubling its December 2024 earnings to a staggering $99.4 million.

Trailing behind Genshin Impact was Pokémon TCG, generating $64 million in revenue. Love and Deepspace, a popular "female gacha" title, secured third place with $55.2 million.

Honkai Star Rail experienced a decline in earnings, reaching $50.8 million for the month. Zenless Zone Zero also saw a significant drop, with revenue halved to $26.3 million compared to its December performance.

It's important to note that this ranking considers only mobile platform revenue. While some titles, like miHoYo's offerings, are also available on PC, their PC revenue is not included in this data. Furthermore, the data for Android in China is estimated using a multiplier based on iOS revenue due to the absence of Google Play in the region.
