“Mobile is now the world’s most popular gaming platform with billions of people playing games on their phone every day,” Mobile Gaming Show editorial director Jake Tucker said. “The Mobile Gaming Show will shine a spotlight on some of the very best mobile games available and the people that make them. We’ll also look at the most innovative and exciting titles coming soon that demand your attention. Join us on September 26 to discover the mobile games that everyone will be playing in 2024 and beyond!”
“Almost everyone plays mobile games, and it’s never been a more impressive, varied platform when it comes to development and new releases,” managing director of games and entertainment at Future Matthew Pierce added. “However, just like console and PC gaming, there are so many mobile games being released every month that discoverability remains a challenge – for both creators and gamers. We’ve always been committed to helping our audiences find the titles that are worth spending their valuable gaming time on, bringing them to life through digital, print, video and live channels. That’s always been at the heart of what Future Games’ brands do, and soon you’ll start seeing more content from us focusing on mobile and handheld gaming as well.”
