Microsoft announced its plans for expanding gaming to its users over the next decade at DICE 2019 on Tuesday.
Head of Global Gaming Partnerships and Development at Xbox and Microsoft, Sarah Bond, spoke about the methods that will be implemented by Xbox to put their visions into reality.
Bond noted the amount of gamers globally at the moment, and what the growth rate will be like by the year 2030.
“Of the eight billion people on the planet, four billion of them are digitally connected and two billion of them are gamers. By 2030, the eight will become nine, the four will become five, but the big number is of the two billion – that will become four billion. Nearly half of the world’s population will be playing games.”
