According to AppMagic, Operation Delta created a $7 million single-day income record on 17 April for the search and removal game under the flag of communicator. This achievement may be related to the recent major update of the game, which added new maps, new staff and a time-bound fee exercise.
In the first three months of 2026, Operation Delta received $144 million through in-service purchases, almost six times more than in the first quarter of 2025. The cumulative proceeds of Operation Delta now amount to $556 million and 75 million downloads. Operation Delta is a hard-core military shooting game developed by the team at Tianmei’s studio. The main “search-and-dismantling” of multiple confrontations requires that players work closely with their teammates to develop action plans using tactical props and equipment to fulfil their objectives and withdraw from the battlefield as soon as possible.
Since the third quarter of 2025, the only quarterly shooting game that exceeds Operation Delta is Operation Jedi Survival. Operation Delta currently accounts for 2 per cent of the lifetime income of the shooting game market and contributed 14 per cent of the market income in the first quarter of 2026. The Jedi Survival is the highest-ever shooting game with 1.3 billion downloads and over $9.9 billion. This was followed by the fire of Free Fire, $3.5 billion, 2.1 billion downloads in South-East Asia, mission callers (2.2 billion, 456 million downloads), Operation Wilderness (199 billion, 97 million downloads) and Crossing the Fireline: Legends (1.6 billion, 96 million downloads).
