Anyone else noticing how gaming is taking over in other ways than the usual ways? Having personal experience of VR (PSVR & PSVR2) I'm seeing VR and AR adding deeper layers never thought possible and as mobile tech is getting more advanced, mobile gaming is bigger than ever. Kantar’s latest study got me thinking: as games become more immersive, where brands are jumping in too and taking advantage of it's progress with Ads. I personally despise ads ruining my experiences (a nod to YouTube). But I do have a question....how do you think brands can add value here in this developing format, without disrupting the fun? 🤔 #GamingEvolves #VR #AR #MobileGaming"

Smart Monetization Strategy for VR game dev shops 💸 HyperVR Games cleverly bundled their hilariously fun VR game collection, maximizing engagement. They provided all titles during onboarding, capitalizing on user interest and increasing purchase likelihood. Just like me dropping that credit card hard cuz my daughter “was dreaming about playing this all day” 🤣 By creating a portfolio of similar apps instead of launching titles only separately, they leveraged success across multiple titles without reinventing the wheel. Cross promo, maximised in 3D. This strategy avoids the need to market each title individually, optimizing resources and potentially increasing revenue. Wonder if their team is willing to share more about this strategy. Plus, monetization within one app might cause overwhelm for a consumer if every few weeks you need to spend to purchase upgrades on an avatars, collectibles, “oh a new color?” GTFO 🤣 I like finding smart cookies like this in the VR world. Have you found any interesting monetisation systems with consumer apps in VR? Share em. #VR #MetaQuest #Gaming
