ACCORDING TO A REPORT BY JUNIPER RESEARCH, REVENUES FROM THE GLOBAL DIGITAL GAMES MARKET ARE ESTIMATED TO REACH THE $100 BILLION MILESTONE BY THE END OF THIS YEAR. THE REPORT INDICATES THAT CONTRARY TO PREVIOUS ESTIMATES, THE PC MARKET HAS BEEN REIGNITED THANKS TO F2P (FREE TO PLAY) GAMES.

F2P allows gamers to access the game for free. REVENUES ARE THEN MADE BY PURCHASES WITHIN THE GAME, WHICH IS KNOWN AS THE FREEMIUM MODEL; POPULARIZED BY MOBILE GAMES, in order to grow the number of players and accelerate spending. COMBINED WITH THE CONTINUED GROWTH OF MOBILE, THE INDUSTRY IS PROJECTED TO REACH REVENUES OF $132 BILLION by 2021. Versus Systems, Inc. (OTC: VRSSF), Zynga Inc.
