The gaming industry sees thousands of gaming titles releasing every year and several hundreds of them garner major revenue from sales. The countries are ranked below by the revenue generated from gaming titles, excluding revenues from hardware sales, b2b services, online gambling, and betting. Unsurprisingly, China and USA topped the list with not a very significant gap in the revenues accumulated by developers in the two countries. Although China generates more revenue than the US, the notable aspect is the former’s entire population dwarfs the latter. Not only that, the internet population of China is more than three times that of US. Per se, if you look at the revenue generated by per-person basis, US tops the list. Japan, Germany, and the UK occupied the next three spots on the ranking list, showing a steep decline in the revenues.
