2021 should experience a slight drop in the game industry


With the current pandemic which led to a record increase in the game industry last year, 2021 is on the right track to see a slight decrease both in the number of players and the amount of income generated by the industry game as a whole. For the first time, the Newzoo Games data collection site has compiled a negative forecast of the way in which the coming year promises to be for the game industry - but although things are not good, They could be much worse.

2020 has seen massive growth in the game market for various reasons - the pandemic has made people stay at home, leaving them enough time to start their consoles or their PCs, and the 4th quarter of the next Generation the PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S consoles have caused a boom in demand that has still not calmed down. Overall, 2020 experienced the highest growth ever recorded for the game industry, with a 23.1% increase in income, which made it increase to $ 177.8 billion.

However, the game boom is not without drawbacks - the current supply chain problems have made new generation consoles almost inaccessible for the most part, with both disturbances of the supply chain and the rise Console scalpers absolutely decimating the number of consoles available for eager players. This, as well as the litany of delays in AAA titles because of the pandemic, should lead to a decline in console games this year. Newzoo plans that console games will generate approximately 8.9% less income than last year. The general decline will also affect PC games, because a global shortage of flea has led to PC components less and less available for consumers.

AAA Gaming is dying Interestingly, the mobile games market should experience a 4.4% increase in its income, because the sector is less affected by the shortage of flea than consoles or PCs. The slightest complexity of the development of mobile games means that there will be less delays related to the pandemic, and the Chinese game ecosystem of Tencent should be able to resist the stroke of the sector which will come with the suppression by Apple of the identification system for advertisers (IDFA).

Pokémon Scarlet and Violet: How to evolve Tandemaus, the friendly couple of rat?

Alternative evolution methods were becoming increasingly common in Pokémon games. If at the beginning of the franchise most monsters changed form when they were reached, when they were exchanged or through elemental stones, in future titles we saw creatures that evolved by learning a certain blow, being in a particular place, etc. Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, the youngest in the series, are no different either. One of the funniest things in this ninth generation is the evolution of small Pokémon called Tandems. These two mice, which you will find in the early hours of the game wandering through some plain, have one of the most special evolutions of the whole saga. We see here how to get Household. How do you get Household in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet?
