Chart of the Week: Plants vs. Zombies 2 tops iOS downloads in August
But is nowhere to be seen when it comes to revenue
|
EA's Plants vs. Zombies 2: It's About Time stormed to the top of the iOS download charts in August according to stats released by App Annie, breaking records in the process.
The firm reports that, in it's sharp journey to the summit of Apple's download charts, it surpassed the total number of downloads its predecessor amassed in just a few of weeks.
Indeed, EA reported that downloads hit 25 million at the start of September.
Money mattersThe reason? As previously stated, EA's decision to take the franchise free-to-play was always likely to bolster take-up – as indeed was the fact it was featured in more than 100 countries by Apple.
