Doug Purdy, director of developer products for Facebook, announced that over 230 million Facebook users played a game on the social network in the last 30 days, or 25 percent of its entire user-base. He noted that Facebook has directed users to the App Store and Google Play more than 150 million times in the past month and disputed that one publisher dominates gaming on Facebook.
“We’re seeing the rise of new publishers like Kixeye and King.com, who are building really awesome games and making a lot of money doing that,” said Purdy. “We’re really happy with the diversity we’re seeing. We have over 130 apps on Facebook that have more than a million monthly users, which is phenomenal. It isn’t just one publisher dominating this space; there’s a plethora of [publishers] being successful.”
