Game investments and M&A totaled $17.5B across 985 deals in 2024 | DDM


As the games industry moves on from “survive til 25,” 2024 games investment and M&A data revealed recovery and improvement, DDM said.

“While the games industry has made it through ‘survive til’ 25,’ DDM’s outlook remains cautiously optimistic. Additionally, with SPACs, DDM said it considers the investment value to be what was raised in the transaction, not the company valuation afterward. The exclusion of announced deals may result in a large difference between DDM’s quarterly total and other firms, but the methodology gives a clearer picture of the money deployed in the last quarter, providing valuable data consistency for companies evaluating game industry investment and acquisitions, DDM said.
