In an interview with LCN, YouTuber Nabil “Aiekillu” Lahrech explained that the video game sector is currently experiencing a transition to the digital world.
“Video games are moving more and more towards on-demand services and a little bit towards cloud gaming. “I think that in the next decade, video games are at risk of experiencing the same changes as the rest of the entertainment industries: music, cinema, etc.,” he claims.
Consoles that have sold tens of millions of units in the past appear to be less popular, notes the YouTuber specializing in video games.
“We run the risk of seeing more and more subscription systems and fewer and fewer new consoles and new devices,” says Nabil Lahrech.
