Monopoly Go is the fastest mobile game to reach $6 billion

The mobile game Monopoly Go from Hasbro and Scopely has set a new industry record, becoming the fastest project in history to reach $6 billion in in-game transaction revenue. According to analysts at Sensor Tower, the game reached this financial milestone in 1,275 days, or approximately 3.5 years after its release. This figure is a full year ahead of the previous record holder in this category.

Despite its relatively short market presence—1,014 days—the game has demonstrated consistently high monetization, with monthly revenue of approximately $200 million. By comparison, blockbusters like Rockstar Games' Grand Theft Auto generate between $150 million and $200 million in a single quarter. Monopoly Go ranks fourteenth in overall mobile game revenue rankings on Google Play and the App Store, demonstrating its exceptional commercial performance.

The game's success strengthens publisher Scopely's position in the competitive mobile entertainment market. The company recently acquired Niantic, the studio behind the popular Pokemon Go game, indicating a strategy of expansion through the acquisition of successful developers.
