📝Over 90M Gamers in Japan and Korea Play Multi-Platform
Discover the latest insights on gaming behavior in Japan and Korea from Niko Partners' 2024 report. Multi-platform gaming is on the rise, with significant growth in cross-platform play among gamers.
What’s Going On Here?
Niko Partners' July 2024 report reveals a major shift in gaming habits among the 97 million gamers in Japan and Korea. Multi-platform gaming is on the rise, with over 70% of Japanese mobile gamers and 90% of South Korean PC gamers now playing across different platforms. This trend indicates a growing trend toward cross-platform engagement.
What Does This Mean?
The significant rise in multi-platform play reflects a broader acceptance of diverse gaming experiences, bridging mobile, console, and PC platforms. For developers, this trend underscores the importance of creating games that work seamlessly across different systems. The findings also suggest a potential stagnation in Japan’s mobile market but growth in PC and console sectors, while Korea’s market dynamics show similar trends.
Why Should I Care?
For those involved in the gaming industry, these insights highlight the increasing demand for cross-platform functionality, a key feature in blockchain gaming. As gamers become more engaged across various platforms, blockchain technology’s ability to offer secure, interconnected, and versatile gaming experiences becomes increasingly relevant.

✍️ Reviews of the Week
Step into the Grim Syndicate universe for a unique TCG experience then create your own character to dive into neverending dungeon runs and loot to choose from in our two featured reviews:
Abysswalkers offers a well-designed TCG experience with an excellent tutorial that immerses players in the game's lore. The graphics are solid, with decent VFX, though additional effects for character play could enhance the experience. The audio design is competent but could benefit from more distinct sounds for attacks and effects. The gameplay is easy to understand and has depth, but the limited card variety restricts playstyle diversity. |
Seraph: In the Darkness has shown consistent improvement through numerous playtests, though it hasn't reached perfection. The graphics are impressive with clear visual effects, and the audio design features well-made sound effects, though the English version has some dialogue errors. The gameplay is enjoyable and easy to understand, with initial acts being relatively easy and increasing difficulty in the void realm tiers. The endgame offers hours of play but may feel purposeless once high-level items are acquired, although item trading could appeal to some players. |
