“Pokemon Go” took the summer by storm – and it’s ended up making a lot of money too.
The Nintendo app has hauled in $440 million worldwide to-date, which also actually places ahead of a number of high-profile blockbuster films. While the initial download of the app is free, “Pokemon Go” makes money through in-app purchases.
According to a comparison by research firm Sensor Tower, the smartphone-based video game has bested the box office for “Warcraft,” “Independence Day 2,” “The Angry Birds Movie,” “Star Trek Beyond” and “Ghostbusters 2.” In case you don’t believe us, check out the company’s chart below.
