Sensor Tower — Harry Potter: Wizards Unite’s first day is slower than Pokémon Go’s debut

Harry Potter: Wizards Unite launched yesterday for iOS and Android in the U.S. and UK, and Niantic‘s new game conjured about 400,000 installs and $300,000 in revenue, according to data from market analyst Sensor Tower.

That’s a strong start, but the firm says this is well behind the explosive debut of Niantic’s 2016 smash hit Pokémon Go. In its first 24 hours in just the U.S., Sensor Tower said the location-based augmented reality game earned 7.5 million installs and $2 million in revenue.
