Today Sensor Tower released a new report which said that during Q1 2022, global mobile gaming amassed $21.2 billion in revenue, a 6% decline compared to last year.
The analytics firm's State of Mobile Gaming report provided a more detailed breakdown of revenue performance by country.
The US saw mobile game consumer spending decline by 10%, as it generated just under $6 billion for the quarter.
Despite the decrease, the country remains the top mobile games market Sensor Tower said.
Whereas Japan, the second largest mobile games market, was down 18% year-over-year and amassed $4.2 billion for the period.
Additionally, the report said that US consumer spending on the Google Play Store dropped by 22% during Q1 of 2022.
Sensor Tower went to say that this maybe attributed to inflation and rising cost of living in the US.
