"GLAAD Study Reveals 1 in 5 Gamers Identify as LGBTQ+"
A new GLAAD study, conducted in partnership with Nielson, reveals that nearly 1 in 5 gamers identify as LGBT+, marking a 70% increase from three years ago. However, games with LGBT+ characters and storylines make up less than 2% of titles on major digital platforms, and harassment remains a significant issue for LGBT+ players. The report emphasizes the importance of inclusive representation and calls for the games industry to prioritize hiring LGBT+ individuals and fostering inclusive communities.
