ESAC has released its 2013 report on the state of the Canadian video game industry: Canada’s Video Game Industry in 2013.

This comprehensive report was compiled by Nordicity for ESAC and is one of the only Canadian reports ton the national composition of the industry – including its economic contribution to Canada’s GDP, average employee salaries and skills, provincial breakdowns and video game Ccompany outputs. To provide an in-depth analysis of the industry, Nordicity consulted many of our nation’s top video game publishers and developers through an extensive survey as well as conducting interviews with industry experts.
