Coronavirus or COVID-19 is a major concern for the whole world right now. Talking about the video game industry, the majority of the game developers have withdrawn from the annual conferences like E3, Gamescom and even GDC. Recently, we’re seeing more and more game studios implementing the “work from home” policy which is probably a step in the right direction.

This report comes from a Korean website called Nate.com in which they talk about how coronavirus has boosted the sales of toys and video game consoles. “In particular, game-related hardware and software, such as the Nintendo Switch and Sony PlayStation, are popular. These game machine products are sold so that it is difficult to secure inventory,” the report says.
