On the podcast: Red Dead Redemption, Moon Active, Playtika, Liftoff, 2025’s top games, data, jobs, more

 

The mobilegamer.biz podcast is a concise, banter-free digest of what’s driving the mobile games business.

Every week, mobilegamer.biz founder and editor Neil Long goes on a walk and tells you what’s going on and why it’s important.

This week:

  • How Rockstar’s Red Dead Redemption is doing on mobile
  • Coin Master maker Moon Active’s latest soft launches
  • Playtika cuts 500 staff, says its growth strategy isn’t working (and wants AI efficiencies)
  • Marketing firm Liftoff files for an IPO
  • Possibly too much detail on 2025’s top grossing games
  • Just enough detail on 2025’s top downloads
  • Quick data and jobs news nuggets
