GAMING: Performance in the Gaming business was excellent, with sales up 74.3%.
Catalogue sales (new games) amounted to €20.7 million, an increase of 102.2% driven by the success of Robocop: Rogue City TM, which achieved record sales and obtained a User Score of 92% on Steam, along with good sales of Cricket 24: Official Game of The AshesTM.
Back Catalogue sales (games released in previous years) also saw strong growth, boosted by an increase in console ownership and the signature of a significant contract, and rose by 42.1% to €12.6 million.
ACCESSORIES: Sales in this business amounted to €23.9 million, an increase of 17.1%. New products released in October – the RIG 600 PRO gaming headset and the REVOLUTION 5 PRO controller – are very widely stocked by specialist retailers and their sales have got off to a good start.
