According to the report, the combined GDP of Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan is approaching $1.3 trillion, and both Hong Kong and Macau have an average ARPU exceeding $70. These metrics position the region as a premium monetization hub, supported by a mature digital entertainment economy and sophisticated user behavior patterns.
The report notes that mobile gaming in these regions is not merely a leisure activity but a central part of cultural digital consumption.
Taiwan’s player base favors authentic IP-driven games, particularly from Riot Games, and has shown strong engagement with light strategy and interactive narrative titles such as Let’s Go Mifen and Witch Xiu Xiu Xiu.
Hong Kong stands out for immersive AAA RPGs and strategy games, with high-spending users concentrated in simulation and role-playing categories.
Macau, while a niche market, generates disproportionately high revenue through strategic simulation and collectible card games, catering to a focused, high-value male audience.
FoxData’s data also highlights cultural and structural distinctions that influence game rankings. Taiwan’s market tends to avoid certain domestic titles, such as Honor of Kings, instead preferring alternatives that align with its “anti-homogenization” culture.
In Hong Kong, international IPs have high penetration, while Macau’s player engagement is shaped by strategic gameplay depth and the appeal of “games as entertainment, investment as achievement.”
The report emphasizes that developers seeking success in these markets must employ targeted strategies. This includes localized storytelling, light yet culturally attuned content packaging, and rhythm-based event design that sustains user engagement. Additionally, precision audience segmentation and ROI-driven campaign management are critical for long-term performance.
