It's odd to think that the original Despicable Me was Studio Illumination's first feature film (helped by Paris-based animation studio Mac Guff) and that it kickstarted a hugely successful franchise. Minion Rush itself is also immensely successful, having been downloaded over a billion times and going strong for more than ten years.

It seems that, while some may find Steve Carrell's Gru and his little yellow minions a bit grating, they're not losing steam anytime soon. Especially with another film right around the corner that's sure to spark even more interest in the series.

And if you can't stand the minions enough to give Gameloft's hit title a go, that's no problem. Why not check out our list of the best mobile games of 2024 (so far) instead to see what might catch your eye?
