Almost two -thirds of this amount fell into microprocessors – $ 24.4 billion or 58% of the total income. Pomegranate purchases – Call of Duty: Black Ops 6, Roblox and Fortnite.
Additional content (DLC) also increased by $ 5.3 billion (+0.8%compared to 2023). The main contribution was made by Diablo 4, Hand Ring and World of Warcraft.
However, the sales of the premium game sank: 10.7 billion dollars per year, 28% of all revenues, but 2.6% less than the previous year. In general, the PC-IRGR market increased only 0.1%, but 5.4%was added compared to 2022.
Newzoo estimates that in 2025, the market will rise to $ 37.9 billion and reach $ 40 billion by 2027. The result is simple: Free models to play continue to dominate and lost the position of the classic game purchase position.
