Gacha game enthusiasts are always eager to keep tabs on the financial performance of their favorite titles. The latest figures for January 2025 have now been unveiled, showcasing some intriguing shifts in the market.
Genshin Impact, developed by miHoYo (HoYoverse), has recently released a significant update featuring the pyro archon and the much-anticipated banner with Mawuika. This update has proven to be a massive hit, propelling the game's revenue to an impressive $99.4 million for the month. This marks a substantial increase from the $45.6 million earned in December 2024.

Following closely behind, Pokemon TCG secured the second spot with earnings of $64 million. The "female gacha" game Love and Deepspace also performed strongly, rounding out the top three with $55.2 million in revenue.
On the other hand, Honkai Star Rail saw its earnings dip to $50.8 million, while Zenless Zone Zero experienced a significant decline, with its revenue halving from $57.9 million to $26.3 million.
It's worth noting that these rankings only consider revenue from mobile platforms. Some of these games, particularly those from miHoYo, are also available on PC. Additionally, a crucial detail in the calculation method is highlighted: "Since Google Play does not exist in China, the estimates published for Android data in China are determined using a multiplier based on iOS revenue in the country."
