Pokemon GO is still popular than Clash of Clans according to a recent survey. This clearly contradicts various reports about the game's huge decline.

Pokemon GO - Flash In The Pan Game?

Niantic released the game last July but was quickly downloaded by more than 50 million smartphone owners in the United States alone. It's now almost available to every country in the globe except for a few such as China and the two Koreas. Three months after its release however, reports are circulating that millions have left the game. Critics say that the initial excitement has died down and many are leaving for various reasons.

Pokemon GO - Millions of Loyal Players

It's true that players who left Pokemon GO numbered in the millions but the ones who remained in the game far outnumber the leavers, according to SuveyMonkey. The survey claims that Pokemon GO and Clash of Clans have basically the same weekly user retention rate.

Comparing Pokemon GO With Clash of Clans

Currently, Pokemon GO has more 15 million active players every week while Clash of Clans has almost 4 million. The two mobile games may have the same retention rate but the difference in their player base also influences how many players it loses every week. Clash of Clans may be losing almost a million players per week but Pokemon GO loses almost 4 million because of its bigger player base.

The millions who leave Pokemon GO is the one attracting the attention of the game's doomsayers. But based on the survey, Pokemon GO actually has the most players compared to Clash of Clans and other popular mobile games combined.

Pokemon GO Future Outlook

Despite the criticisms leveled at the game, the developer is promising to add more features to the game. It is true that Pokemon GO is losing players every week but Niantic can expect to see their game in the top spot for quite some time.
