DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Southeast Asia Mobile Games Market Report 2017-2021" report has been added to Research and Markets' offering.
2017 Mobile Games Revenue is Projected to Reach $1.1 Billion, Rising to $2.4 Billion by 2021, With Faster Growth Than Previously Forecast
Southeast Asia's mobile games market is booming, representing a lucrative opportunity for mobile developers and publishers. Huge numbers of avid gamers, lower user acquisition costs, the prevalence of the English language, and a relatively open market for new entrants all make the region very attractive.
However, each country's different culture, gamer preferences, and spending behaviors means there is no one size fits all approach to the region. One particular differentiator with the West is the mobile app distribution system, which is broader than just Google Play and Apple App Store. Further, while the regulatory landscape is more relaxed than China, several countries have regulations that do impact strategy for the region.
