NewZoo has confirmed that the new Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream is the new game with the highest revenue this year. They have also released revenue charts for April covering both consoles and PC.
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream topped the console chart for April, along with being the top revenue earning game of 2026 so far. NewZoo cited the install base of the Nintendo Switch and Nintendo Switch 2 as contributing factors.
Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream launched on April 16 digitally in the Nintendo eShop and physically at the Nintendo Store and retail for $59.99. A free demo is available now, allowing players to make a few Miis and try out some of the game’s features. Save data from the demo transfers to the full game. For completing the demo, you get a free hamster costume, which also carries over to the full game.
The NewZoo rankings cover the US, UK, Germany, France, Spain, and Italy. On April’s list for top earning console games, Fortnite, EA Sports FC 26, NBA 2K26, and MLB The Show 26, follow Tomodachi Life. In terms of PC games, Counter-Strike 2, Fortnite, the debuting Windrose, Valorant, and League of Legends take the top spots.
Many of the slots on both lists are filled by long-standing titles, such as live service games with enduring popularity. New games such as Pragmata (8th on PC, 10th on console) and Mouse P.I. For Hire (16th on PC, 19th on console) also made appearances alongside Windrose. The only games released in March to make the lists were Slay the Spire II (17th on PC) and Pokopia (12th on console). NewZoo described the difficulty that new titles can have breaking into “established” aspects of ongoing games, such as “player routines, progression systems, and social networks”.
