The first-person shooter was downloaded the most in the United States, which accounted for 16.6 percent of the total downloads. India followed in second place with 17.5 million or 10.2 percent of the total installs.

The game was installed through the Google Play Store more than 89 million times (52 percent), compared to about 83 million downloads (48 percent) from the iOS App Store.

The revenue generation was similar to downloads. The game grossed $55 million in October and then dropped to about $33 million in November.
