Look at Gaming #115 | Friday December 9th 2022

A deeper look into the RPG Genre with the top two sub-genres: Team battlers and Action RPG, which have about the same game count AND the same gross rev of $7.1B and $7.5B, respectively — even the Rev per Download for both subgenres are about $13.50. These are GLOBAL numbers, but once we divided them into Tier-1 Western markets, we see that the top gross revenue subgenre is Team Battlers at $1.6B then Action RPG at less than half at $700M. The RpDs are slightly different with Team battlers at $11 and ARPG at $8. Now, we take flight to our Tier-1 Eastern markets and these numbers go wild.
The top subgenres by gross rev are ARPG at $6.1B and Team battlers at $5B with RpD range between $26 and $30. This is 3x'd that of the Western markets. Simply wow. The sleeper here is actually the subgenre Open World which pulled in a $46 RpD. This is your Genshin Impact and Diablo Immortal titles. Ludicrous!
GLOBAL
Subgenre (Game Count) / Rev / Downloads

Action RPG (2.7k) / $7.5B / 513M
Open World (104) / $2.9B / 146M
