Game sales exploded during the period when we were confined to our homes due to coronavirus. In previous statements, it was stated that sales on Türk Telekom's game platform Playstore increased by 100 percent in March, April and May. With the increase in time spent at home within the scope of the fight against coronavirus, or Covid-19, Türk Telekom's digital game platform Playstore broke a sales record. Football was the first choice of game lovers.
Even though quarantine and curfews have ended, we are still spending more time at home because the danger of coronavirus, that is, Covid-19, has not passed. This led us to turn to games, and it looks like this will continue a little longer.
While game sales are increasing on many platforms, we asked some questions to Türk Telekom's Playstore platform, whose opinions we received on the subject, and received the following answers.
We will continue playing games at home!
Do you have any new projects for the coming period, specifically on Playstore? Are you thinking of giving important games for free or doing many different campaigns?
As Turkey's first and leading digital game platform, we focus on meeting all the needs of game lovers. We periodically run campaigns and provide our visitors with the advantage of purchasing games with the best discounts. We have some preparations for different campaigns and collaborations in the near future, and we will announce these through our communication channels soon. In addition, our 'up to 90 percent discount' campaigns, which are always welcomed by players, will be updated with the addition of different games and will continue throughout the year.
Do you have any projects to develop Playstore as a more independent and Turkey's gaming platform? For example, there may be ideas such as adding local games or indie games.
As Playstore, we are the platform with the largest local game catalog in Turkey and we are very keen to expand this catalog further. Many different types of games currently published by local producers can be accessed from the page https://www.playstore.com/koleksiyon/yerli-yapimlar on our website.
As Playstore, we always support local game developers. Considering the limited resources available to local developers who want to take part in Playstore with their productions, we provide free communication support for their games in order to support their success. In addition, we leave all the profits from the sales of these local games to the producers.
Do you think this increase in the sales of games will continue after the quarantine period?
Even though the active quarantine process has ended, we are going through a period when people want to spend more time at home. During this period, spending time individually, with family members at home, or playing online video games became one of the leading entertainments. Some of them encountered the joy of digital games for the first time during this period. For this reason, we predict that game sales will continue at the current high rate in the coming months.
