Personally, I believe next gen games will reward efficiency and focus.

We're seeing it now, AAA publishers should have taken note by now:

- #Expedition33: $10M, >7.5M copies
- #KCD2: $70M, >5M copies
- #ArcRaiders: $75M, >12M copies

Success comes from lean design and authentic hype, not feature creep or marketing stunts.

US Gamers Aren’t Buying Video Games Anymore, New Study Reveals

TOMORROW. FUCKING. COMES.

$100M in revenue (at best). They surely recoup the (rumored) $20M production costs, partly from the Game Pass deal.

Will #DeathStranding2 steal their thunder?

I will quote @PirateSoftware because it speaks the logical answer for $80 games: people will buy less.

According to the report #Africa #GamingMarket Size (2024–2029) by #MordorIntelligence, a consultancy and #MarketResearch firm, the video game market in Africa is estimated to be worth over USD 2.14 billion in 2024. This figure could reach USD 3.72 billion by 2029.

#VideoGames have strong appeal among #AfricanYouth — of the continent’s 1.6 billion inhabitants, over 400 million are between the ages of 15 and 35. #Gaming is not merely a pastime; it can also be a real profession, known as esports, which includes its own rules, tournaments, prize money, and international competitions, like the Olympics Esports Games set to be held in Saudi Arabia in 2025. To explore the significance of this industry, #GlobalVoices spoke with Kofi Sika Latzoo, a #Togolese expert based in #Senegal.
