Top Gacha Games by Profit in January 2025 Revealed

Gacha game enthusiasts are always keen on tracking the financial performance of their favorite titles, and the latest figures for January 2025 have sparked considerable interest. A major highlight of last month was the release of a significant update for Genshin Impact, featuring the pyro archon Mawuika. This update propelled the game to new financial heights, doubling its revenue to an impressive $99.4 million, compared to $45.6 million in December 2024.

In the rankings, Genshin Impact secured the top spot, followed by Pokémon TCG, which earned $64 million, and the increasingly popular "female gacha" game, Love and Deepspace, which brought in $55.2 million. Honkai Star Rail experienced a dip in earnings, reporting $50.8 million, while Zenless Zone Zero saw its revenue cut in half, dropping from $57.9 million to $26.3 million.

It's important to note that these rankings are based solely on mobile platform revenues. Some of these games, including those from miHoYo, are also available on PC. Additionally, a special calculation method is used for the Chinese market: "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."
