In December, the 2D deduction title racked up over 40 million downloads, giving Among Us a strong end to a very impressive year as it was the most downloaded mobile game of the year.

Similarly, the number of downloads was 36 times more than that of the same month in 2019. What’s interesting is that The US and Brazil accounted for the most installs with 17.5 percent and 9.3 percent, respectively.

November 2020 was a vital month for the game, as not only did Among Us excel 200 million downloads, but it also smashed 500 million monthly active users.

Finally, Among Us was given the title of Mobile Game of the Year at The Game Awards 2020.

Runners Up

In second place last month was Join Clash 3D created by Supersonic. The game managed to pick up 29 million installs, with 39.7 percent of installs coming from India.

In third place was  Sushi Roll 3D by Say Games, closely followed by two Voodoo titles, Roof Rails and Shortcut Run sat at No.4 and No.5.

Overall, the French mobile games developer and publisher picked up two billion downloads across its entire portfolio in 2020.

The Golden Child

While it may not have cracked the top 10 overall, Riot Games’ League of Legends: Wild Rift did manage to creep up the App Store chart.

Having released at the tail end of last year, and being confirmed for iOS devices in October, Wild Rift managed to pick up almost 4 billion downloads in December 2020.

Moreover, the mobile MOBA has proven to be most popular in Vietnam, Turkey and Taiwan.

League of Legends: Wild Rift is so much that we recommend it if you are looking for something new.

COD Mobile

In other news, Call of Duty: Mobile may not have entered the top five, but it did enjoy the No.7 spot overall after experiencing its best months for downloads since November 2019.

Over the Christmas period, the mobile shooter managed to generate almost 17 million downloads, which was surely helped by its successful launch in China. Supported by the fact that 60 percent of downloads came from the Chinese App Store.

Within its first week of launch in China, Call of Duty: Mobile grossed $14 million in revenue.

Overall, Activision’s mobile shooter has picked up 300 million downloads as of October 2020.
