The serious business of making games

I don’t have current numbers, but we talked about the discrepancy between non-F2P PC game revenue and F2P PC game revenue several years ago, and most of that spending comes from the Chinese and Korean markets. The short version: in 2017’s SuperData report, the top three F2P PC games by revenue brought in a combined $5 billion, with League of Legends alone bringing in as much as the top ten non-F2P PC games combined.
