China’s mobile gaming growth continues to slow in Q3

China’s mobile gaming revenue growth has continued to slow this month, according to data from iResearch. The latest figures, translated and graphed by China Internet Watch reveal that year-on-year revenue growth in mobile gaming was just 72.8 percent in Q3. That sounds like a lot, but year-on-year revenue growth in the previous quarter was over 108 percent, and in Q1 it was nearly 120 percent. Q3’s growth figures actually represent a pretty steep decline:

Online gaming revenues overall reached RMB 27 billion (US$4.3 billion) this quarter, driven primarily by PC gaming. Mobile game revenues totaled RMB 6.98 billion (US$1.3 billon), accounting for 25 percent of the online gaming industry’s revenue.
