Taiwan Digital Games Market Report and Forecast 2017-2021 – Research and Markets

The “Taiwan Digital Games Market Report and Forecast” report has been added to Research and Markets’ offering.

Taipei) is a market in its own right and very distinct from mainland
China and the rest of Southeast Asia in terms of gamer behavior, local
game development, and types of games in demand.

The market continues to grow across both PC online and mobile games, and
esports is heating up with significant investment entering the space.
With a clearer regulatory landscape than mainland China, the Taiwan
market represents a lucrative opportunity for international competitors
but it requires a different approach and understanding.
