Additional key findings from the Axon-Kantar report include:

  • Mobile gaming is a daily habit for most players, with 70% playing every day, making it one of the most consistent, high-frequency touchpoints available to advertisers.
  • 71% of mobile gamers shop online at least weekly, with 77% spending $100 or more per month.
  • Unlike the fatigue often associated with social feeds, mobile gaming drives more positive emotional engagement, with 71% of players saying they view ads favorably while playing.
