Immutable has announced the launch of a mobile gaming division aimed at the $121 billion market. This move aligns with their strategy to boost Web3 gaming. The action underscores efforts to capture a significant share of mobile users.
The initiative is led by Robbie Ferguson, a pioneer in Layer 2 scaling and Web3 gaming. He emphasized mobile’s massive potential, noting that half of global gamers use their phones, contributing to the colossal market value.
Immediate effects could be seen in gaming and blockchain sectors, with potential expansion in Layer 2 structure usage. The company plans to invest heavily in new products and partnerships to enhance their market presence.

“Mobile is the single largest opportunity in gaming, with over half of the world’s gamers now playing on their phones, generating $121 billion a year. Since the judicial shifts in April, Immutable has already propelled three games to the #1 spot on mobile charts like the App Store and Google Play. Our new mobile gaming division will bring the next generation of on-chain games to the mainstream and next billion users. We’re prepared to invest heavily in new products, talent and partnerships so that when you open the app store, Immutable games are on top.”
This follows successful precedents of past high-profile launches.
