VentureBeat highlights the research findings of SuperData, which shows that social casino games will earn $1.6 billion in revenues this year, climbing to $2.4 billion by 2015. Social gaming is coming on strong. With the transition to more casino-type gaming for social gamers, this group is a key target for those operators in jurisdictions where iGaming becomes more prevalent, or even legal for the first time. The SuperData report focuses on slots, poker and table casino games, so other skill games like fantasy sports doesn't appear to be included, adding even more revenues to this area.
