MIDiA Research: A third of PC and Console Gamers play less than 5 hours a week
A lot of players never see the credits in the games they play.
The company conducted a study in Q4’24, which found that, on average, console gamers spend 10 hours a week playing games, while PC gamers spend 9.7 hours a week.
But average figures don’t always tell the whole story. Two-thirds of PC and console users spend less than 10 hours a week on gaming.
36% of console gamers and 40% of PC gamers play less than 5 hours weekly.
Many players simply don’t have time for big games as large RPGs or GAAS projects. Specifically, MIDiA Research analysts link the stagnation of subscription services to this lack of time. People buy a subscription and barely play any of the games included.
