European game developers are moving to the PC, mobile, and PlayStation 4

Europe’s game developers are moving in a mass migration to the future of games. And for them, that means the PC, mobile devices, and the PlayStation 4 video game console.

The GDC Europe conference, which takes place in Cologne, Germany, in August, found in its survey of European game developers that 18 percent are currently working on games for the Sony PS4, compared to 13 percent for the Microsoft Xbox One. For the future, 33 percent said they expect their next game to be made for the PS4, versus 23 percent for the Xbox One.
