Another year has passed. The gaming industry set records in revenue (Hogwarts Legacy; Monopoly GO!), the number of high-quality releases, and layoffs (over 10 thousand by the end of the year). There were both good and bad moments, as always.
The newsletter doubled this year in number of subscribers. Thank you for reading and providing feedback. It's very pleasing that you find the content valuable. In 2023, I started writing editorials, and next year, I plan to do it more often.
Thanks to all the partners who supported the newsletter!
Alan Wake II, Final Fantasy XVI, and SOULS are my personal favorites of 2023. They are very different, and, of course, not perfect, but each of these games is made with great love and attention to detail.
I wish all of us - the entire gaming industry - just to be better in 2024 than we were in 2023.
Cheers,
Dima
