Released a little over a month ago, Pokémon TCG Pocket is a free-to-play take on the popular card game, with an emphasis on opening packs and unlocking new and aesthetically-pleasing cards. As with all things Pokémon, the game has proven to be an immediate hit – already surpassing 60 million total downloads.
In a press release detailing the game’s upcoming Mythical Island Expansion (set to arrive on the 17th of December), The Pokémon Company also offered an update on the game’s current performance, revealing that:
“The popular Pokémon Trading Card Game Pocket app has exceeded 60 million downloads on iOS and Android devices since its global launch on Oct. 30, 2024.”
For some context, TCG Pocket hit its first major milestone just under one week into its launch, surpassing 10 million total downloads. Given how the game has added an additional 50 million players in the month since, it seems momentum for the game is only increasing.
That said, despite reaching 10 million downloads faster than Pokémon GO, TCG Pocket has a long way to go to reach anywhere near GO’s more than 600 million downloads.
