Data.ai: Mobile has huge lead on PC and console in consumer spend

Data.ai released a new report in partnership with International Data Corporation (IDC) analyzing the rising fortunes of the gaming market. Mobile gaming, in particular, has been rising steadily for almost a decade, and it now has a huge lead on its fellow markets in the PC and console space.

That’s not to say any part of the gaming market is doing poorly. In fact, the entire industry is set to reach $222 billion this year. Data.ai also says it expects a boost in sales on consoles when more PS5s and Xbox Series consoles become available throughout the year. But mobile gaming in particular is on a meteoric rise.
