While it\u2019s no surprise that the mobile gaming market is massive, a new report sheds light on just how much it contributes to overall games industry revenue.<\/p>\n

According to research firm Newzoo, mobile gaming made up 52 percent of the market in 2021, bringing in over $93.2 billion USD (about $118.2 billion CAD) in revenue last year alone.<\/p>\n

To put these numbers into perspective, the mobile gaming market made more in 2021 than consoles and PC combined<\/em>. Specifically, consoles generated $50.4 billion USD (about $63.9 billion CAD) in revenue, while PC accounted for $36.7 billion USD (about $46.5 billion CAD). That works out to a total of $87.1 billion USD (about $110 billion CAD), which is $6.1 billion USD (about $7.7 billion CAD) short of the mobile earnings.<\/p>\n

Of that $93.2 billion USD, $16.4 billion USD (about $20.8 billion CAD) came from North America \u2014 a five percent growth from 2020. Asia-Pacific, meanwhile, dominated the market with $59.8 billion USD (about $75.8 billion CAD), which was a 7.9 percent year-over-year growth.<\/p>\n

Interestingly, the report breaks the mobile figures down further by noting that $11.7 billion USD (about $14.8 billion CAD) was earned on tablets, while the remaining $81.5 billion USD (about $103.4 billion CAD) came from smartphones. However, there is no mention on the breakdown of Google Play vs. App Store revenue.<\/p>\n

All of this data came from a larger Newzoo report commissioned by TikTok on the video-sharing platform\u2019s efforts to reach mobile gamers. The full report can be found here<\/a>.<\/p>\n
