Mobile esports, too big to ignore
Mobile esports compete with PC / console esports in every aspect of the industry. The differentiation to get started doesn’t make a lot of sense, especially considering both platforms require immense skill and talent to get started. Let’s take a look at a few key points why mobile esports is the real deal.
Abilities
The skills to be a top-tier esports player are primarily for practice, the embodiment of this practice at a split-second level of subconscious predictions and reactions is the same for a player on any gaming platform.
Audience
A report from Esports Charts shows that mobile esports was responsible for the top three most-watched esports events in July, with viewing figures significantly exceeding the top PC and console events.
This isn’t just a one-time thing, the most watched event around the world was the Mobile Legends MPL Invitational 4 Nation Cup, a $ 100,000 tournament featuring teams from Southeast Asia.
Most of the time, mobile esports match, if not outnumber, the audience compared to PC games. Even taking the streamer side into account, Mortal, the mobile esports gamer, who ranks second in the esports awards for streamer of the year, says it all.
It has been known for a long time that mobile esports are massive in Asia; In the next few years, you can expect that to grow even more and potentially become a factor in the Western world as well.
Income and Prizepool
In 2018, mobile games accounted for more than 51% ($ 15.6 billion) of the domestic game market revenue in China, accounting for about 25.7% of the global mobile game revenue. E-sports titles for PC made $ 16.1 billion in revenue globally, with roughly 40% of the profits coming from China.
The awards also tell a similar story, the PMGC has the largest jackpot in mobile gaming history of $ 4 million, which is equivalent to the smite world championship and many other mobile titles.
In fact, PUBG Mobile, the dominant force in mobile esports, its jackpot has gone from a total prize pool of $ 5 million in 2020 to an announced $ 14 million for tournaments throughout the year 2021.
Growth of mobile esports
The number of more midcore / hardcore mobile gamers and gamers is growing rapidly and the mobile platform is leading the way in the percentage of growing internet users who are new to games. The percentage of smartphone penetration in fast-growing markets shows a huge advantage for mobile games and e-sports.
From all of this, we can see that the higher number of participants,% monetization, and revenue from Mobile Competitive Gaming vs. PC Competitive Gaming spells a very promising future for mobile esports, and in certain countries it has already displaced to PC esports. So Dr Disrespects’ comments are only making fun of himself and his followers.
