PUBG Mobile is a giant success, with research firm SensorTower reporting that the game has now surpassed $3.5 billion in revenue from microtransactions since its release.
The game is growing fast, as the lifetime revenue for the game was estimated to be $3 billion back in July. The game needed just 72 days to add $500 million more, which works out to about $7 million per day.
