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 in under 20 minutes.
In this episode:
- An attempt to explain Apple’s new EU App Store terms in a concise way, plus suitably entertaining commentary from BFFs Epic Games
- Supercell’s Mo Co is getting rebooted for the second time and is underperforming, but the Finnish firm says killing it is unlikely
- Tencent and Krafton are launching PUBG Mobile Light, a new edition of the game seemingly designed for emerging markets with lower specs and memory demands
- MTG’s newly rebranded midcore division Playamp says it has integrated AI tools into practically all of its processes, with seemingly really solid results
- A chat with Downwell and Poinpy creator Ojiro Fumoto about working with Devolver and Netflix and getting a job at Nintendo then going solo again
- A word on Apple and Google each trying a little bit harder at Gamescom this year
- A rattle through a packed set of July download and top grossing data from AppMagic, featuring various Arrows games, World Cup fever, Smash Fest, Pokémon Go, Honor of Kings, Roblox, Gossip Harbor, PUBG Mobile and LastWar’s dramatic drop
- A brief summary of those Netflix studio and job cuts
- Data, soft launch and new games nuggets, including news on Supercell’s Project Rise
- No special guest at the end this week, but he sends his finest regards
