While the spread of the new coronavirus infection has prompted people to refrain from going out, the Distribution Giken has reported that game distribution viewing time has increased in Japan since February 2020.
Although the number of infected people is decreasing, it is unlikely that the voluntary curfew will be relaxed in the future. In such a situation, online events and streams will become more and more popular.
Those who want to start distributing games in the future should take a look at the contents of this announcement.
