PS5 and Switch 2 dominate GDC survey, with only 20% of devs prioritizing Xbox consoles https://www.notebookcheck.net/PS5-an...1215786.0.html
"As the Game Developers Conference on March 9th approaches, organizers have released a new State of the Game Industry survey. The report predicts which platforms may soon see a surge in new titles. While devs prefer making PC games, the PS5 and Switch 2 are the most popular consoles. Meanwhile, amid declining hardware revenue, interest in Xbox systems has fallen sharply.
The Xbox may be dead to some devs
As Video Games Chronicle discusses, over 2300 game industry professionals participated in the GDC survey. One question asked, “Which platform(s) most interest you as a developer right now?” With respondents allowed to choose multiple selections, at 80%, the PC was the clear winner. The PS5 and Steam Deck are next at 40%, followed by the Switch 2 at 39%, with the Xbox Series X|S trailing at 20%.
Like in the 2025 report, desktop and laptop gaming remain a top priority for these creators. No individual console has the same massive user base, and popular marketplaces like Steam have fewer restrictions. That support even extends to the Linux-based Steam Deck, which scored an impressive 40%."
PC-ul domina clar cu 80% nu e nici o surpriza dar ce mi-a atras atentie e ca Steam Deck e la acelasi nivel cu PS5 si peste Switch 2.
Xbox din pacate o sa pice tot mai jos, Microsoft ingroapa de unul singur divizia Xbox.
More than 50% of game developers say generative AI is harming the industry, the highest level to date https://www.techspot.com/news/111128...i-harming.html
"Just because game company executives love AI, it doesn't mean everyone feels the same way. According to a new survey from GDC, over half of game developers think it's having a negative impact on the industry – up from just 18% two years ago. One dev said they would rather "quit the industry than use generative AI"
