Delta Force generated $10 million in daily player spending on September 4th, 2026. The tactical shooter from Team Jade then set a new record of nearly $10.1 million the following day, according to estimates from AppMagic.
This stark rise represented a 603% increase in daily spending compared to September 3rd. The surge coincided with the release of end-of-season content, specifically the Warfare Weekly Supply event.
End-of-Season Event Drives Spending
The Warfare Weekly Supply event offered rewards like Premium Weapon EXP tokens and a Warfare EXP multiplier card. It ran until September 7th. During the event, players could use specific weapons to earn bonus rewards. They could also spend in-game resources for a chance to win assault rifles from a prize pool. Over the weekend, gamers received double the usual Merit during their first three Warfare Grade Matches.
Players in China accounted for more than 99% of the spending peak on September 5th. The United States ranked a distant second, contributing less than $9,000 in daily spend that day.
Topping the Mobile Charts
The lucrative update propelled Delta Force to first place on the mobile games spending charts last Friday. It had been in 19th place the day before. In the top spot, it overtook major titles including Pokémon Go, Royal Match, and Honor of Kings. It reportedly earned more than double the daily sum of Honor of Kings.
Spending grew slightly on September 5th, but Delta Force fell to second place. Pokémon Go saw its own surge following a recent comeback during its 10th anniversary. The geolocation giant surpassed Delta Force by less than $13,000. By Sunday, Delta Force had slipped to third place with daily spending down to $5.8 million.
A History of Short-Lived Spikes
The game has experienced several sudden, short-lived revenue spikes throughout its lifetime. Revenue typically tumbles back to its baseline within days. The previous record was set on November 15th, 2025, with $9.8 million in mobile spending. The very next day, spending fell to $5.4 million. By November 20th, it had dropped back below $2 million.
In this latest instance, spending surged during the end-of-season update for season 10. Season 11 is scheduled to roll out on September 8th, 2026. Team Jade intends to treat this update as the game's second anniversary celebration. It is set to include new operator Rowan Walsh and his military dog Clover.
Whether the new season will impact the longevity of the current spending surge is not yet clear. The game's total earnings are likely higher when including its PC and console versions. Across its nearly two-year lifetime on mobile, including its soft launch, Delta Force has generated $112.5 million.
