The global market at a glance
By 2027, the global mobile games market is projected to reach $118.9 billion, passing its 2024 projections of $98.7 billion. With a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 6.4%, all regions are seeing marketed growth, providing new opportunities for developers looking to expand their reach in the upcoming year. A particular standout is China, which is poised to lead the charge, generating $34.6 billion in revenue this year alone.A shift in mobile advertising strategies
For developers struggling with in-app purchases, mobile advertising, specifically with rewarded ads, is gaining traction. Genres like role-playing, casual, and word games are finding a 38.1% increase in view rate when strategically placing ads. With Android users spending 5.1 trillion hours in apps in 2023, this new trend is a great way to boost player engagement and revenue.The ripple effect of regulatory changes
With the passing of the Digital Markets Act (DMA), the European Commission opened up proceedings in September 2024. The commission's goal is to enforce interoperability obligations, signaling a shift toward fair competition in the market. As these rules evolve, developers must stay ahead, taking advantage of the opportunities while avoiding challenges related to distribution and monetization.What does this mean for you?
