Scopely's $1bn Loom Games deal and Matthew Ball's big industry report | Week in Mobile Games podcast

The mobile gaming landscape is currently defined by a widening divide between established franchises and new market entrants.

• Scopely has secured a significant investment in the hybrid-casual game Pixel Flow, which has achieved daily seven-figure revenue since its October launch and is one of the few games in the last year to break into the top 20 grossing rankings.
• Activision will shut down Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile on April 17, 2026, citing a failure to meet performance expectations and the strategic difficulty of competing with other successful shooters.
• Unity shares have declined by 91% since November 2021, a trend attributed to the lingering negative impact of the runtime fee controversy, restructuring challenges, and market pressures from AI-driven competition.
