Best & Most Popular Gacha Games 2021 (October)

This is a list of the most popular, successful (and possibly best) gacha games currently on the market.

It’s based on data provided by Sensor Tower and Reddit.

The main stats tracked are Monthly Revenue (USD – August, 2021), Monthly Downloads (August, 2021), and Subreddit subscriber count (September, 2021) .

It should be noted that the data is only for Google Play & iTunes. As such, it won’t be 100% accurate due to certain games having their app on other platforms as well. However, it will certainly give a pretty good overall perceptive of what’s currently doing well.

The order is defaulted to Monthly Revenue, as that’s generally the main indicator of success, but it doesn’t necessarily make it the most popular or best game. The order can be changed to your liking.
