DEI status in the Video Game Industry

In video gaming, women's voices are becoming more prominent, thanks to supportive mentorship. We're creating spaces where creativity can thrive. Despite past layoffs, we're developing lasting DEI strategies to build trust with every success.

Challenges in the video games industry

  • Representation Gaps:

    Despite growing awareness, leadership and creative roles still lack diversity in gender, ethnicity, and background.

  • Community Harassment:

    Online gaming communities can be breeding grounds for toxicity, dissuading diverse talent and audiences.

  • Accessibility:

    Design and gameplay often overlook the needs of gamers with disabilities, limiting engagement and inclusion.

  • Cultural Sensitivity:

    Games that fail to respectfully represent cultures can alienate players and stifle universal appeal.
