Approximately 190.6 million people play games at least one hour each week in the United States, said Stanley Pierre-Louis, president and CEO of the ESA, in an interview with GamesBeat. Nearly three-quarters of American adults agree video games can help improve cognitive skills (73%) and provide accessible experiences for players with different abilities (74%).
