DFC Debuts Video Game Forecasting Service

Gaming sector analyst DFC Intelligence has announced a new service which tracks the market for video games on both PC and console platforms. The program looks at upcoming releases and provides subscribers with detailed assessments of titles it considers likely to succeed.

Aimed at firms across the sector, from creative, developers, production and publishers through to chip, PC, console and VR suppliers, the Game Forecasting Service will provide a quarterly report, including a detailed assessment of PC and console games (Xbox, Playstation and Nintendo) due for release, for the next six months and beyond. It will also look further ahead to pick out what it regards as the most important titles for release in the next year.

In addition to factual data, the reports will detail DFC's subjective rankings for title quality, reputation, marketing potential, distribution and buzz, with explanations. The subscription service includes a one-hour call per quarter to discuss the data with analysts, but the report can also be bought on its own.

Launched in 1995, the company is online at www.dfcint.com .
