Superdata: Worldwide digital games market: July 2018
Fortnite's success may continue for some time to come, but in July the first evidence manifested of its unchecked growth flagging at last. Nonetheless, it continued to drive console digital game spending throughout the month according to SuperData's monthly report.
The report on the worldwide digital games market for July showed that overall, digital game spending was up 3% year-over-year at $8.2 billion, with Fornite driving the heaviest increases in console downloads. Premium PC once again looked lackluster comparatively, down 14% year-over-year.
Despite its continued steady success, Fortnite did settle somewhat after months in a row of exponential growth. Fortnite revenue increased a mere 2% from last month in spite of the season 5 battle pass release during the reporting period.
