Video gaming in Australia - statistics & facts
As is the case with most of the digital media industry globally, the Australian video games industry has seen a shift towards digital content in recent years, with sales of most digital products on the decline. It is possible that the coronavirus pandemic has both contributed to and accelerated this shift, with the resulting lockdowns meaning that people were required to remain at home, needing to find ways to occupy their time. Global market revenue has seen steady, significant year-on-year growth, particularly with mobile games, over the last few years, and this growth is predicted to continue until at least 2027.
