SHENZHEN, China, Oct. 23, 2021 /PRNewswire=KYODO JBN/ --

Today at its annual Huawei Developer Conference 2021 (HDC 2021)

(https://developer.huawei.com/consumer/en/hdc/hdc2021/index.html ), Huawei

reaffirmed its commitment to gaming developers in driving innovation and

business expansion, offering new technologies to create unique gaming

experiences.

Alexandre Salem, Global Director, Global Partnerships & Eco-Development

Business Department at Huawei, shared the prominent gaming trends for

developers, as well as the opportunities that AppGallery can provide to fuel

their success.

"The pandemic changed the way people view gaming as a mainstream form of

entertainment, resulting in a growing momentum of mobile gaming," said

Alexandre. "We want developers to help fuel this growth."

Alex discussed how gaming turned into a US$175 billion industry in 2020, with

mobile gaming accelerating the fastest. Accounting for 48% of gaming revenue in

2020, it's up 13% from 2019.

Empowering developers for unique gaming experiences

AppGallery commits to providing gaming developers with the capabilities,

support, and opportunities they need to succeed in an increasingly competitive

environment. Alex highlighted four key pillars that provide attractive value

propositions for developers with AppGallery – scale, speed, discoverability,

and monetisation, including availability for high-touch support.

AppGallery possesses extensive distribution capabilities to over 560 million

monthly active users, providing speed through Huawei Mobile Services (HMS)

integration and with easy-to-use tools to assist in development and publication.

Leading mobile game developer Gameloft( https://www.gameloft.com/en/ ), for

example, worked with AppGallery to launch over 11 games, creating a

console-like gaming experience that led to a 70% increase in downloads in the

first three months following launch.

Supporting developers in market expansion

AppGallery offers developers the resources to increase discoverability and

develop monetisation strategies through services such as AppGallery, Petal

Search, Petal Maps, and HUAWEI Ads. AppGallery provides support in over 170

countries and regions, 6 HMS regional centres, and tailored marketing for over

5.1 million registered developers.

Playrix( https://www.playrix.com/en/ ), developer of all-time hits such as

Gardenscapes and Homescapes, partnered with AppGallery for its series of game

launches and received full end-to-end support, including implementation of HMS

Core Kits and promotions through Huawei Ads.

With over 10 years of distribution experience in China, AppGallery is also

well-placed to help international developers unlock business opportunities in

the expanding Chinese market.

"One of our underlying priorities is to offer more choice of domestic and

global apps to Chinese consumers," shared Alex. "Our extensive user base in

China and in-depth understanding of the domestic app marketplace and user

characteristics means we can help international developers identify challenges

accurately and efficiently."
