Pokemo Go : 45 millions users in one month
When Pokémon Go launched, it exploded into a worldwide phenomenon in short order. Massive downloads, huge amounts of user engagement, parties — for a brief period of time, it looked as if the new game might single-handedly revolutionize mobile gaming. The bloom, however, seems to fading off this particular rose in short order.
A new report from Bloomberg highlights the steep decline in Pokémon Go’s daily users and overall user engagement. While the app peaked at 45 million daily users, it’s since declined to just 35 million — and while that still qualifies it as a smash hit, it’s a worrisome drop for a game to shed 22% of its user base in just one month.
“Given the rapid rise in usage of the Pokémon Go app since the launch in July, investors have been concerned that this new user experience has been detracting from time spent on other mobile focused apps,” senior Analyst Victor Anthony wrote for Axiom Capital Management. “The declining trends should assuage investor concerns about the impact of Pokémon Go on time spent on the above named companies.” (Said named companies included Facebook, Instagram, Tinder, Twitter, and Snapchat.)
Playstation has a new offer
As of this writing, the PlayStation Now service offers more than 400 games, all of them drawn from the PlayStation 3 era. The service isn’t cheap — it costs $19.99 per month (recurring) and $44.99 if you pay in three-month blocks. Sony has offered a yearly subscription for $100, but it’s not clear if this deal is still widely available or not.
Not all games are included in the monthly subscription plan — some are only available to rent for a period of time ranging from four hours to three months. Pricing on these is hit-and-miss — some are a great deal, while others are a significant percentage of what you’d pay for a used disc copy.
Sony bringing PlayStation Now game streaming, wireless Dual Shock 4 controllers to PC
The Xbox One doesn’t have many features that the PlayStation 4 lacks, but one significant exception is the ability to stream games from the Xbox One to the PC. Microsoft has made cross play a significant component of its branding initiative and it’s pushed for titles to be both Windows 10 and Xbox One compatible, often with mixed results. Sony doesn’t have the leverage to offer an analogous service, but the company does have its own game streaming business — and it’s bringing that service to the PC market.
