Digital Gaming Dominates Kids' Christmas Wish Lists

A survey conducted by the ESA reveals that among children aged 10 to 17, 29% want in-game currency, 22% want physical games, and 39% prefer subscriptions for video game-related gifts this holiday season. The shift towards digital content and subscriptions reflects the popularity of live-service games like Fortnite and Minecraft, which offer free updates and optional paid content. While these findings may not accurately represent the overall gaming market, they indicate a growing trend away from physical media.
