Read More »Over the last two decades, the business models of video games have progressively shifted from unit-sales-led towards engagement-led. This is due to a combination of factors; including the rise of in-game spending, subscription services, and interactive digital worlds that have become venues for experiences way beyond just gameplay in its traditional sense. This includes consumption of other entertainment formats such as music and video, and just as importantly, accommodating wider psychological needs such as socialising and self-expression. As this transition plays out, time spent on games is becoming an increasingly important metric for a wide variety of roles in the games industry – from financial planning, through to marketing and partnerships as well as for product teams. Going forward, time spent on games will play an increasing role in defining the commercial success of individual games and subscription service offerings. However, this transition isn’t playing out evenly. Differences occur in terms of geography, platform, games genre, and of course the individual titles themselves. To action this transition and prioritise most effectively, games companies need to carefully monitor how and where in gaming gamers spend their time. With this in mind, MIDiA recently published a report with key findings from its ‘games consumption model’. At 7.6 hours per week, the average gamer plays just over one hour every day on average. US gamers spend the longest, while German gamers spent the least amount of time on games out of the nine countries in scope (US, UK, Canada, Australia, Germany, France, Sweden, Brazil, and South Korea). Other findings from the report zoom in on time spent on games based on a gamers’ platform (and brand, in terms of consoles), genre preferences, as well as the games they play.

Heavy or "hardcore" gamers are more likely to experience lucid dreaming or be less disturbed by nightmares, according to a recent interview from The Verge with researcher Jayne Gackenbach. Gackenbach, a psychologist at Grant MacEwan University in Canada, studies how gaming can impact dreaming. While the types of dreams gamers have tend to be more outrageous than the average person's, this can help make them more creative in the real world. It also enhances a person's ability to lucid dream. Speaking with The Verge, she explained that in both dreams and gaming, the individual is exploring an alternate reality. "Gamers already know what it's like to be in control in an alternate reality," Gackenbach said. "So it makes sense that a gamer would notice, ‘hey, I'm in a dream,' and know how to manipulate that situation." Gackenbach's findings also suggest that gamers are more likely to find nightmares less threatening or to even take control. "At least for male gamers, gaming seems to be sort of protective against nightmares," Gackenbach said. "That can largely be seen as a good thing, the threat is less upsetting, and doesn't wake you up ... Maybe games can actually remove the ‘need' for nightmares and the threatening feelings that come with them."
