Dublin, Sept. 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — The “East Asia Video Games Market Report Series – 3 Report Bundle” report from Niko Partners, Inc. has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.
The East Asia Games Market Reports are presented in an all-new way. The publisher offers one Market Model report (May), one Gamer Behavior & Market Insights Report (July-September), and one Market Model Update Report (November) for Japan and Korea, the two largest market in the region.
East Asia is home to the world’s third and fourth largest video game markets. The region is long considered as a mature market as gaming has been integrated into the mainstream culture and industry. Despite facing challenges from an ageing population and slow economic growth, the region remains a force to be reckoned with.
The region is the headquarters of many world-renowned game companies that can conquer the global game industry through international hit titles. In addition, the rise of esports also creates new opportunities for game-makers and brands to achieve success in the region. This proves East Asia is a key market for game developers and publishers, hardware and device makers, infrastructure providers, and investors.
