Video games reported $ 30.4 billion in 2016

Video games reported $ 30.4 billion in 2016

NPD, which regularly follows the video games sector, has just taken stock of the year 2016. Last year, the video games sector generated $ 30.4 billion, more than in 2015. Year 2016 was a successful year for video games with the appeal of virtual and augmented reality.


Video games sold better in 2016 than in 2015. Last year they reported $ 30.4 billion compared to $ 30.2 million in 2015, an increase of $ 200 million.

In the $ 30.4 billion, we find all hardware, software, peripherals and purchases made in games. NPD added that revenues from video game software increased by 6% from 2015. In addition, the growing public interest in RVs and helmets may have contributed to this revenue increase.

The mobile games made a sensation last year with Pokémon Go. But the game consoles also met some success as the Nintendo consoles with the big success of Pokémon gold and silver.
