"미국 50대 이상 게임인구 증가 불구 소외감"

A new study by AARP found that more than 52 million Americans aged 50 and older play video games at least once a month, which is a slight increase from 2019. On average, gamers aged 50+ play games for 12 hours a month, with almost half of them playing games daily. However, despite their growing presence in the gaming industry, many older gamers feel neglected and overlooked, with nearly 70% feeling that the games are not made with them in mind. Over half of them do not see themselves reflected in the games they play, and many find the games too complicated. The study suggests that the industry needs to create games and features designed to be easy to learn, provide consistent gameplay, and offer a challenge to older gamers.

AARP의 연구에 따르면, 50대 이상 미국인 중 한 달에 한 번 이상 비디오 게임을 하는 인구는 5,240만 명으로 증가하고 있지만 많은 게이머들이 게임 산업에서 소외된다는 느낌을 가지고 있습니다. 이들은 게임을 쉽게 배울 수 있고 일관된 게임 플레이와 도전 요소를 제공하는 게임을 원합니다.
