Tencent games generated more revenue this quarter than EA, Activision, Ubi, and 2K combined

Asian market analysis firm Niko Partners have published their rundown of third quarter financial reports from Tencent and NetEase, two of the biggest game publishers in China. Most of their growth for the year has been due to smartphone gaming, but PC titles have proven a reliable base.

Here’s why you should really be paying attention to Tencent.

Tencent’s revenue from mobile and PC gaming has generated $4.9 billion, up 47.5% from the same time in the previous year. The smartphone division was the primary driver for the increase, having grown 84% year over year. Casual gaming has largely moved to mobile, but while these sorts of games are a smaller part of the computer market, PC gaming has still continued to grow.
