As it nears its ninth anniversary, popular mobile game Fate\/Grand Orde<\/strong>r has remained among Japan\u2019s top 10  highest earning mobile games since it first released in 2015. According to data provided by SensorTower<\/a>, most of Fate\/Grand Order\u2019s monthly average users come from Japan, followed by China, America, and South Korea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

SensorTower attributes Fate\/Grand Order\u2019s 1 million+ monthly average Japanese users to the game\u2019s high retention rate. Over 30% of users are reported to continue playing on their 30th<\/sup> day, and 25% on their 60th<\/sup> and 90th<\/sup> days. While other popular mobile games like Monster Stike, Puzzle & Dragons, and Mushroom Legend: The Hero and the Magic Lamp have higher player counts, Fate\/Grand Order prides itself with how it consistently keeps players coming back. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Going deeper into the engagement summary reveals that the ratio of male to female Fate\/Grand Order users is 6:4, while most users are 25-34 years old. A good 20% of users are aged 18-24, as are those who are 35-44 years old. That\u2019s a lot of young and mature adults playing Fate\/Grand Order. If developer Lasengle\u2019s track record is any indication, the game could very well continue delighting players for years to come.\u00a0<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
