The Scottish government announced its support for the formation of a national strategy for the video games market, a task that will be undertaken by the Scottish Games Network, which said that the size of the video games market in the country amounts to more than 188.5 million pounds sterling annually, which is comparable in size to financial technologies, cybersecurity, and other fields.
The network aims to come up with a strategy that provides concrete and applicable advice in the country to increase awareness and support for video games. We will see what this strategy will yield in terms of market size and encouraging the emergence of more Scottish developers.
