Dynamics of Gaming Deals

• Global gaming VC investment peaked at $5.3 billion across 186 deals in 2021 before contracting sharply to $874 million in 2023.
• The decline in total capital was primarily driven by a scarcity of Series A-plus growth-stage funding, even as early-stage financing remained relatively stable.
• A modest market rebound is underway in 2024, supported by the entry of new funds and expectations for higher returns despite ongoing user-acquisition challenges.
