State of the Industry: Work from Home Edition

Ahead of GDC Summer in August, GDC organizers have once again surveyed nearly 2,500 game developers to better understand current and future game industry trends in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. Notable findings include:

  • A shift to work-from-home setups for a majority of game developers.
  • Nearly half of devs report longer working hours and less productivity than before the pandemic.
  • A third of devs have had a game delayed due to the pandemic.
