Games Market
The gaming industry continues to advance and has now even exceeded sales in other entertainment areas such as music, films and sports year-on-year. The games market turned over almost 180 million US dollars last year.This increased the result by 20%. Of course, the pandemic played a crucial role here. While other entertainment venues such as cinemas, concert halls or sports facilities had to remain closed for the time being, people were looking for distraction in everyday life by buying a console. Experts also expect further improvements in sales for the current year. Responsible for this are the next-gen consoles from Sony and Microsoft, which are difficult to get even months after the release. Almost half of gaming sales are again in the mobile sector. A total of $ 87.7 billion was recorded - a year-over-year increase of 24%.
