New IAB Study Reveals Five Misperceptions About Video Game Advertising

Retrieved on: 
Wednesday, March 8, 2023

NEW YORK, March 8, 2023  /PRNewswire/ -- Two out of every three Americans play video games through various platforms (ESA, 2022), and gaming is third only to TV and social media in terms of where audiences spend their time--yet gaming captures less than 5% of advertiser budgets.

Key Points: 
  • While in-game advertising often mimics real-world awareness media — for example, billboards in a driving game or stadium signage in a sports game — gaming offers much more.
  • On a free mobile game, players fully expect to see ads in exchange for getting the game for free.
  • Where there are billboards in a driving game, gamers enjoy it more if it adds realism to the game.
  • As the misperceptions dissipate, we expect spending on in-game advertising will begin to catch up to the opportunity."
