Honor of Kings reaches 50 million downloads and $100 million in revenue in its first month
As a long-time fan of mobile games, I have seen my fair share of titles come and go. But none have left me as impressed as Honor of Kings. Having followed the game since its early days in China, I was thrilled to hear about its global release, and the numbers we’re seeing now are simply mind-blowing.
After a month since its official release, Honor of Kings is creating quite a buzz with impressive statistics. The popular MOBA game has achieved an astounding milestone of over 50 million downloads and generated more than $100 million in revenue within its first month.
Honor of Kings replicates the success of the Chinese version with its global release
With AppMagic’s recent enhancement, we now have the ability to review the financial data for Honor of Kings. Over the past thirty days, this game has generated over $100 million in earnings, an impressive achievement as it enters its first month. The vast majority of this engagement, approximately 95%, originated from China, with the remaining 5% derived from other regions.
In China, Honor of Kings set new benchmarks and achieved blockbuster status as the first mobile game to generate more than $10 billion in earnings during the year 2021. Five years after its debut in 2015, the game continued to captivate audiences with over 100 million daily active users and over 200 million monthly active users in the year 2020.
The excitement surrounding this game needed such impressive figures to match, and it has indeed delivered. The globally recognized Chinese Multiplayer Online Battle Arena (MOBA) game, King’s Glory, was initially unveiled in June 2022. Since then, the anticipation among fans had been palpable, and now, we finally have the data to show for it.

Based on this information, it’s evident that fans were drawn to the game’s exhilarating combat setting, resulting in impressive sales figures. I’m aware that only two games have managed to earn over $100 million within their first month of release: Honkai Star Rail and Genshin Impact, both developed by HoYoverse. Notably, Genshin Impact broke sales records with a massive $245 million revenue in its initial month.
