Sensor Tower's State of Gaming 2026 report reveals that mobile game revenue grew just 1% to $82 billion in 2025, with downloads declining, signaling a mature market focused on retention and monetization. PC and console gaming outperformed with 13% revenue growth, and Steam set new records for units sold, premium revenue, and game releases. Battlefield 6 was the top-selling PC/console title, while R.E.P.O. and Peak led indie sales. On mobile, 4X Strategy was the only genre to grow across revenue, downloads, and time spent, led by Last War: Survival and Whiteout Survival.
