Pokemon GO has been a significant and consistent success over the years in terms of everything from player engagement to the revenues it generates, though recent reports suggested that the mobile title had seen significant decreases in monthly revenues of late, falling to an estimated $34.7 million in revenues in April from $58 million in February.

However, Pokemon GO developer Niantic has disputed the accuracy of those numbers. In a statement provided to Eurogamer, the company said that the title’s aforementioned revenue estimates are inaccurate, and that its revenues in 2023 are currently trending higher than 2022’s numbers.

“We generally don’t comment on third-party estimates of our revenue as they are often incorrect, which is the case here,” Niantic said. “Our revenue so far in 2023 is up on last year.”

Niantic also added that it tends not to focus on monthly numbers for the game, owing to their generally fluctuating nature, and noted that in-person Raiding in Pokemon GO has seen an uptick since Remote Raids were removed in a controversial update.
