New consumer survey finds exclusives are the number one reason people play on a console, but is there more to it than that?
A new survey by Circana reveals that 41% of console gamers cite exclusive titles as their primary reason for choosing a platform, though this figure has decreased by eight points from the previous year. Despite the importance of exclusives for hardware sales, popular non-exclusive live service games like Fortnite and Call of Duty continue to dominate player engagement across PlayStation and Xbox consoles.
