Posted on 6 years ago by Brian(@NE_Brian) in Mobile, News | 2 Comments
Pokemon GO got off to an incredible start last summer. It essentially became a phenomenon, and had millions upon millions playing each day.
No one expected Pokemon GO to keep up its initial playerbase and revenue stream. Still, by the end of last year, it was still doing fairly well.
As reported by Recode based on comScore data, Pokemon GO was averaging around five million daily unique visitors late last year. That’s a far cry from the initial 28.5 million, but respectable nonetheless.
