LOS ANGELES: Player spending in PUBG Mobile overtook the amount spent in the iOS version of Fortnite last month for the first time, according to Sensor Tower. 

Global spending in PUBG Mobile was up 24% from December, with players spending an estimated US$45.2mil (RM184.37mil) on the App Store and Google Play versions of the game. Fortnite on mobile made Epic Games an estimated US$37.9mil (RM154.59mil) last month, by comparison. The caveat, as noted by mobile market intelligence provider Sensor Tower, is that this is only accounting for the iOS version of the dominating battle royale game, as compared to the Apple and Android versions of PUBG Mobile
