South Korea is probably home to one of the most talented gamers in the world with a strong gaming culture cultivated early on from the days of Starcraft.

Today, we'll share insights into the Korean gaming market and the games players enjoy! 👇🇰🇷
Dominated by the 3N - #Netmarble, #Nexon & #NCSoft, South Korea has some of the most impressive game developers/publishers in the world.

This growth has not slowed down with Krafton, Pearly Abyss, WeMade, Com2us & Kakao Games making their own stride in the industry. 🎮
With such a strong gaming culture, South Korea has over 30mil + gamers which represent 65% of their entire total population!
What's interesting here is that, while the size of the total no. of players in South Korea is only ranked 22 globally, its spending is one of the highest in the world at over $8bil with a large majority spent on Mobile Gaming.
What are the games that KR gamers are into?

On the mobile front, all 3 of the top games are home-grown titles developed by #Devsisters, #NCSoft & #KakaoGames.

With some of the best graphics & immersive gameplay, it's no surprise that RPG/MMORPG holds the largest market share.
On the PC front, it's similar to other markets with @LeagueOfLegends, @Roblox & @CSGO being the top games played by KR gamers.

In fact, League of Legends has shaped up the entire Esports scene in KR with some of the top players hailing from the region.
On Console Gaming, new releases of #FIFA have consistently topped the charts given the large football community in the country.

Aside from that, #EldenRing (RPG) & #GhostofTsushishima (Action-Adventure) has been popular with KR gamers.
While the KR gaming industry will continue to thrive, there are certainly regulatory doubts with blockchain-based games yet to be lifted out of their ban despite being made an election manifesto by the current President. 👀
