August can be a quiet month in the mobile market as we move out of the holiday period, so we’ve combined the biggest updates from the mobile market in July and August into an absolutely mammoth Analyst Bulletin covering everything you need to know. 

One of the hottest trends off the back of Summer BBQs is ingredient gathering/formula events, which are surging in popularity as major names like Coin Master and Disney Solitaire implement these new events to create a larger event framework that incentivizes players to participate in as many events as possible. While most people might associate ingredients with cooking, the formula-based nature of ingredient gathering means this event type can be repurposed for different themes, which is exactly what Match Villains did by building this event type around a safe-cracking event. 

Outside of trending events, the last couple of months have seen some notable mobile launches for AAA PC and console franchises, namely Riot Games’ Valorant in China and Sony/Bungie’s Destiny. Both games are off to a strong start, but can they sustain this in an increasingly competitive mobile market? In addition to these AAA mainstays, you’ll find plenty of exciting new releases you should be keeping an eye on in this month’s bulletin.
