The PC and console segment, excluding mobile and Nintendo platforms, represents a $2.5–3.0 billion market opportunity for developers.
PC gaming revenue in Japan grew 16.2% year-over-year in 2024, significantly outpacing the 4.4% global growth rate, though this momentum faces headwinds from a weakening yen.
