Take-Two CEO: the game industry will continue to grow in the next 20 years, with an average age of 37
CTOnews.com, Oct. 13, according to Take Two Interactive CEO Strauss Zelnick, in terms of further growth, the gaming industry is not yet close to its peak.
Zelnick talked about the current situation, acquisitions and possible growth of the gaming industry in an interview with foreign media The Wrap. In the interview, he was asked what he thought of the additional growth of the interactive entertainment industry during the global epidemic and whether he thought that growth had peaked.
Zelnick made it very clear that the industry is not close to the upper limit and believes that the gaming industry will continue to grow over the next 20 years and will level off only after that, as most of the people who grow up with games will be over 60.
"We're not near the peak yet, because the average age of players is still 36, 37, 38, and people will spend the rest of their lives on entertainment they fell in love with at 17, and they won't lose it," Zelnick explained. "our favorite music is the music we liked when we were 17, and the same is true for interactive entertainment."
"so when our team reaches 60, mathematically, it may reach its peak, but it hasn't been reached yet, so the industry should continue to grow over the next 20 years."
