Pokemon GO comes in fourth place with $651 million and Roblox follows with $579 million.

Pokémon Go Debuts New Season

The Season of Legends kicked off in Pokémon Go this week and will host specific spawns and rewards until its conclusion on June 1. Holding true to their promise to deliver three month periods called "seasons" based on a specific theme, this new season comes after the Season of Celebration and features legendary Pokémon like Tornadus, Thundurus, and Landorus in raids. New Mega-Evolved Pokémon are also set to release and monsters like Foongus, Tangela, Miltank, Ducklett and Ponyta will appear more frequently for those in the Northern Hemisphere. Players in the Southern Hemisphere can expect monsters like Paras, Yanma, Shelmet, Vulpix and Zigzagoon.

Jetpack Joyride 2 Soars Onto Phones

Jetpack Joyride is getting a second life as Jetpack Joyride 2: Bullet Rush was announced this past weekend. Developer Halfbrick Studios is bringing the series back after a 10 year gap since the original released back in Sept. 2011. The endless runner sees main character Barry sprinting and flying through fast moving side-scrolling levels as players tap to use his jetpack and avoid obstacles. A soft launch in Australia, New Zealand and Canada started this week and it has not been said when the rest of the world will get a chance to download the sequel.

At the end of last year, Halfbrick Games released Fruit Ninja 2 after nearly a decade since the original's release.
