WHY GAMEDEV?Newzoo forecasts that in 2018 the games market revenue will reach 137.9 billion which is 13.3% more than in 2017.The revenue of thegaming industry today is bigger than the one of the movie industryand is closing to the revenue of the sports industry.Leading research companies estimate that the games market willcontinue to grow in the coming years both in regards to revenuesand the number of players. All this makes the game developmentone of the most promising investment sectors in the world.A particularly rapid growth is observed in the mobile games marketwith a startling breakthrough happening during the last 10 years. In2012, it accounted for the smallest market share, while in this yearmobile games will generate more than a half of all revenues in theindustry, namely 70.3 billion.Ukrainian game development industry is also evolving rapidly. Onlyin recent years more than 30 new game dev companies haveappeared. Gamedev studios are present in almost all Ukraine'sregions. At the same time, there has not been any research on thegame development industry in Ukraine.ACHIEVERS HUB together with UNIT.City Innovation Park has madethe first attempt to create the map of Ukrainian gamedev companiesand analyze the market situation.We have conducted a large-scale survey among the local gamedevelopment companies.
