🔵Hello GDCy people! 🔵

March top-5 gaming reports by GameDev Reports from Dmitriy Byshonkov

1. Unity: Gaming in 2024 Report. A comprehensive report about everything — development, users, money, AI. Must read.

2. AppMagic: Lessons of 2023 for casual games. An interesting article from AppMagic that shows the success rate of some casual genres in 2023.

3. SocialPeta: Trends in Mobile Gaming Marketing in 2023. A lot of data on creatives, advertisers, markets, and genres.

4. data.ai: Mobile Gaming Market in 2024. Top titles; markets overview; data on revenue and advertising. Highly recommend to everyone, who is working with mobile.

5. Adjust & AppLovin: Mobile Game Market Trends in 2024. A lot of benchmarks on sessions, retention, eCPI, LTV & other metrics in mobile games.

Bonus: Mobile Gaming Market in 2023 - not as bad as you want it to be. In this editorial the mobile game market been analyzed; and the legend that the mobile market is dead was (hopefully) busted. It’s not easy though too.
