Videospielbranche wächst, Pre-order stirbt aus & Twitch schaltet stumm – Update!

The gaming market in Germany continues to grow. As announced by the Federal Association of Interactive Entertainment Software (BIU) on the occasion of Gamescom, the video game industry generated revenue of 798 million euros in the first half of 2014. That is 46 million (6%) more than in the same period last year.

While the gaming market is growing, the time for pre-orders seems to be slowly coming to an end. At least that is what Eric Hirshberg, CEO of Activision Publishing, said during a conference call with investors.

This week, Twitch is once again making headlines. After months of speculation about a takeover by Google (now confirmed), the live streaming platform has once again entered the public spotlight.
