The sensation that Pokemon Go worldwide is something that cannot go unnoticed and it seems that everyone is playing it like crazy, moreover, there are now new statistics that reveal that Niantic's "name" has already reached "record numbers".
Specifically, Pokemon Go has been downloaded 75 million times on iOS and Android, despite the fact that it became available on July 5th and only in New Zealand, the US and Australia, with market availability expanding throughout the month.
Pokemon Go hit 50 million downloads in just 19 days, beating out blockbusters like Color Switch, which took 77 days to reach the same number of downloads, and Candy Crush, which took 112 days. And what's really impressive is that Pokemon Go was initially only available to a small portion of the market.
“For most mobile games and apps, even reaching 10 million downloads is a marathon, but Pokémon GO did that and another 50 million in a sprint. It might not be that unreasonable if the game manages to surpass 100 million downloads in the first 60 days, especially if some of the planned gameplay updates are available earlier.”
Of course, the biggest challenge for Niantic right now is to maintain the huge interest in Pokemon Go, but that's really difficult, given that new games are coming out every day. The company has already announced several planned updates in an effort to keep users connected to the world of Pokemon.
