Honor of Kings, a multiplayer online battle game produced by Tencent, remained the best-selling mobile game worldwide in July, according to market intelligence firm Sensor Tower.

Honor of Kings earned $220 million on the App Store and Google Play last month, thanks to the return of two limited-edition skins and a new hero called Doria. Tencent’s PUBG Mobile retook the spot of second-highest grossing mobile game globally with $172 million, of which 63% came from the Chinese iOS market, 8% from the US, and 3.5% from India. 

Justice Online produced by NetEase ranked third with $113 million, thanks to its graphic design and rich game content. The other two in the top five were Royal Match by Dream Games and Candy Crush Saga by King.

Global mobile game players spent $6.56 billion on the App Store and Google Play in July, largely in line with a year ago. The US remains the world’s highest-grossing market for mobile games, contributing nearly $1.9 billion, or nearly 29% of the global total. It’s followed by Chinese iOS market contributing nearly 20% and Japanese market contributing over 16%.
