Pokémon Go had a strong start to 2019. The location-based AR game made $68.1 million during the month, according to market analysis firm Sensor Tower.

That is a huge 84 percent increase over January 2018, when Pokémon Go made $37 million. The game’s total revenue now stands at $2.3 billion. Trainer battling went live in December. It has been an anticipated feature for many fans, and its inclusion could be responsible in the massive January jump.
