Pokemon TCG secured a strong second place with $64 million in revenue, followed closely by Love and Deepspace at $55.2 million.
Conversely, Honkai Star Rail experienced a revenue dip to $50.8 million, while Zenless Zone Zero saw a significant 50% decrease, falling from $57.9 million to $26.3 million.
It's important to note that this ranking solely reflects mobile platform revenue. The data excludes revenue from PC platforms, where some titles, notably miHoYo's games, also have a presence. Furthermore, the methodology accounts for the absence of Google Play in China by employing an iOS revenue multiplier to estimate Android earnings within the country.
