For years, it has been essentially absurd to tabulate industry revenue without ads. Outside of China, mobile game ads nearly match total consumer spending on PC/Console software
Since 2021, mobile ads have been 37-145% of annual industry growth
Without ads, the market (excluding China) is up only $6.8B or +4.8%, but with them, it's +$35B or +20%
Consumer spend contracted during the period when ads' share peaked at ~150%
20-30% of gross revenue from mobile game in-app advertising is collected by ad exchanges such as AppLovin, IronSource, Google, etc., or ~$15B in 2025
