Balancing games industry hardship and hope in 2024

Game Logic: Behind the Games

What challenges did studios face when launching new games in 2023?

James Batchelor is Editor-in-Chief at GamesIndustry.biz and reports on the games industry during this time of economic uncertainty. James faces a balancing act to tell the full story; on one hand, James has a duty to report on all of the studio closures and layoffs that many developers face, however, only focusing on the negatives risks damaging the industry even further. It is important to also highlight any funding successes or new projects that showed the industry's continued potential for growth.

With development costs rising as the market matures, even attending industry events has become more difficult for some independent journalists. Through it all, James aims to provide useful analysis and context to help the games industry navigate changing market conditions. It’s a challenging yet critical time for journalism to both inform and offer encouragement to the developing sector.
