China's mobile gaming revenue is expected to grow at 51.5% CAGR between 2009 and 2014, reaching $2.5 billion despite current market barriers, according to a new report from Pyramid Research.
Apart from game download, the biggest opportunities in China lies in online multiplayer and casual mobile gaming, said Luis Portela, author of the report titled “Mobile gaming in China: Waiting for a 3G boost.”
But in order to “meet demand and live up to its potential, mobile gaming in China needs more affordable data access, wider 3G coverage, and better handset gaming capabilities," Portela added.
