Games investment activity Q1 2024
While games investments remain muted, InvestGame sees early recovery signs.
In the first quarter, disclosed private investments in gaming companies totaled $2.2 billion across 103 deals. At first glance, this is a major improvement from Q1 2023’s $1 billion invested across 147 deals. However, Disney’s $1.5 billion investment into Epic Games accounted for nearly 70% of last quarter’s deal value. Without this outlier, private investment totals fell 30% from the same period last year, though average deal size remained stable.
