Chinese-made games dominate the U.S. market for the first time

The mobile gaming sector is worth billions globally, and sales data has revealed how Chinese game developers have gained market dominance for the first time.

In the first half of 2021, 220 of the top 1,000 games bought or downloaded in the U.S. were made by companies headquartered in China.

That's a 6 percent increase over the past two years, and crucially puts Chinese game developers above U.S. firms for the first time. Meanwhile, the U.S. developers' market share has dropped 10 percent over two years.

Chinese developers also dominate the European market, with more than 10 percent growth across key markets – UK, France, Germany, Russia and Turkey.

Russian and Swedish games companies have also made gains in Europe since 2019, but China-developed mobile games are the most popular.

The market dominance in game downloads also translates to dominance in terms of consumer spend, according to stats from App Annie.
Chinese game developers earned 22 percent of consumer spend in the U.S. in the first half of 2021. They also received the biggest slice in key European markets including the UK, Germany and France.
Mobile gaming boomed during the pandemic, with an average of a billion downloads per week (25 percent more than 2019) and nearly $2 billion spent on games each week (40 percent higher than 2019).
The sector was worth $100 billion globally in 2020, more than double both home consoles ($39bn) and PC and Mac gaming ($39.5bn).

Genshin Impact made me take notice , but to be honest , most of these games are made via Western Rendering suits ,western tools and western platforms.

But Chinese games are getting better, what i would appreciate is China brings its own culture and identity to these games rather than making them like western or Japanese games.
i looking at the wokong game to change that.

eg : Russian games like , Metro , Stalker and DCS are legendary.

I've not got into mobile gaming. My kids are nuts about Roblox though.
 
. . . .
People who like handing over large quantities of cash in a steady loot box titre. We're not talking about making great games that will stand the test of time here, it's just a cash grab.
Pretty retarded in my opinion
