Hunting Rivals Surpasses Three Million Downloads and One Million Active Users on Mobile

My.Games continues to build upon its sustained success in the mobile gaming landscape with the steady rise of Hunting Rivals, which has officially crossed three million installations since its launch in May. Alongside this impressive download milestone, the simulation title has achieved a significant milestone in player engagement, securing a robust one million monthly active users.

Developed as an immersive and visually detailed shooting simulator, Hunting Rivals drops players into competitive groups of six where they track, stalk, and hunt a wide variety of realistically simulated animal species across expansive, diverse wilderness environments. From navigating dense forests in pursuit of deer to tracking majestic lions across the open expanse of the savannah, the game deliberately mirrors the genuine real-world challenges, patience, and precision required in authentic outdoor sporting environments.

Hunting Season… Again

While three million downloads may not match the explosive, record-breaking figures achieved by massive licensed blockbusters or globally recognized media franchises within the same timeframe, the milestone represents a noteworthy triumph for My.Games. Hunting Rivals has managed to carve out a dedicated player base within a distinctly niche genre without relying on the built-in audience or marketing gravity of an established intellectual property or major external brand name.

My.Games has steadily expanded its footprint within the competitive mobile gaming market over recent years, establishing a portfolio of successful titles that includes proven fan favorites like War Robots. Despite this steady growth and the commercial viability of several established titles, the publisher has largely lacked a single, omnipresent flagship title universally synonymous with the company name in the way Clash of Clans defines Supercell or Angry Birds defines Rovio. Whether Hunting Rivals possesses the long-term legs and cultural reach to eventually fill that specific role remains to be seen as the title continues to mature and scale its community.

The title’s early performance highlights a broader trend of resilient original IP finding steady traction in a mobile market frequently dominated by established franchises and sequels. As the mobile gaming landscape for 2026 continues to evolve through its third quarter, titles that balance authentic genre mechanics with accessible multiplayer competition are increasingly finding room to thrive alongside industry heavyweights. For players and industry observers alike, the trajectory of Hunting Rivals serves as a compelling case study in targeted genre development, proving that deeply immersive simulation experiences can successfully capture a dedicated global audience without the backing of a household entertainment name.
