The market is projected to grow modestly by 0.7% to $220 billion in 2026, down from 4.8% growth last year.

The upcoming launch of Grand Theft Auto VI in November is expected to be a major event, influencing release schedules across the industry. Bernstein also downplays AI disruption, emphasizing that creative storytelling and strong player communities remain key to long-term success.
