The rise of not only gaming but mobile gaming in particular continues to grow year after year. The Digital Australia Report 2021 highlights that mobile now ranks second place (overtaking PC and behind console) when it comes to types of devices gamers are using.”

More than 17 mil Australians are connected with video games in some form, with females representing 46% of the audience, males representing 53%. These stats show the importance and opportunities to engage with NZ female audience through gaming.”
