Half the global market

According to data from by 123scommesse, smartphone games generated $74.9 billion in 2020 and made up 43 per cent of the global gaming market.

In 2020, the global gaming market generated an estimated $177.8 billion. Smartphone games account for the largest share, having generated 43 percent of the total amount which equates to $74.9 billion. The next largest share belonged to console games which generated $51.2 billion in revenue for 2020.

Boxed/downloaded PC games also generated a significant amount of revenue with 34.2 in 2020 followed by the moderate earnings of Tablet games and Browser PC games which made $11.4 billion and $3.2 billion each.

2020 was a big year for the global gaming industry, as lockdowns kept a majority of the world indoors for a time, increasing video game engagement across the board. Because of the dramatic and unexpected spike experienced in 2020, the global games market is actually expected to contract in 2021 by 1.1 percent to just $175.8 billion.
