However, the government restrictions cut Chinese gaming revenues this year, making the US an absolute winner.<\/p>\n<p>According to data presented by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.safebettingsites.com\/\">Safe Betting Sites<\/a>, the United States generated nearly $55bn in gaming revenue this year, $11bn more than China.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>The Biggest Revenue Difference so Far<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Considered one of the mainstream forms of entertainment, gaming is an integral part of American culture. According to a Statista survey, there are over 156 million gamers in the country as of this year, and 65% of adults in the US play video games on at least one platform.<\/p>\n<p>Despite gaming already having a solid presence in everyday media consumption, gamers continue spending more time and money on video games.<\/p>\n<p>Three years ago, before the COVID-19 pandemic, the US gaming industry generated $28.4bn in revenue, almost $2bn more than the Chinese market. In 2020, when millions of Americans turned to video games amid lockdown, revenues jumped to $37.8bn. Chinese gaming market hit a $37.1bn value that year.<\/p>\n<p><script id=\"infogram_0_bd51f321-f45f-4c01-a0c5-2dbcfc44ffee\" title=\"US gaming industry in 2022\" src=\"https:\/\/e.infogram.com\/js\/dist\/embed.js?FHb\" type=\"text\/javascript\"><\/script><\/p>\n<p>In 2021, the difference was even smaller, with the US reaching $45.5bn in gaming revenues and China\u00a0 $450 million less. However, 2022 saw the biggest revenue difference between the two gaming nations of nearly $11bn, or 24 times more than last year.<\/p>\n<p>Statista expects the US gaming revenues to remain significantly higher in the following years, with the country grossing between $4.5bn and $6bn more per year than China.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Chinese Gaming Revenues Dipped by\u00a0 $1.8B Due to Government Restrictions<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>China might be the world&#8217;s gaming capital regarding the number of gamers, but its gaming revenues dipped significantly due to government restrictions.<\/p>\n<p>Despite having 714 million gamers in 2022, or four times more than the United States, Chinese gaming revenues dipped by a massive $1.8bn.<\/p>\n<p>The world&#8217;s second-largest gaming industry faced an eight-month freeze on approving new titles, stricter government censorship of game content, and tighter rules restricting playing times for minors, all affecting the user base and revenues.<\/p>\n<p>For the first time in its history, the Chinese gaming industry has seen its revenues drop by 3.8% year-over-year to $44bn in 2022. Also, after the latest push by Chinese regulators, the country lost around 66 million gamers.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>China and the United States have been battling for the top spot of the biggest global gaming market for years.
