1 hr 17 min - The New Video Game Landscape, 2020
Takeaway: Audience members will walk away with +6 on all industry intelligence rolls.
We knew beforehand that 2020 would be a transitional year for the $120bn video games business. Major platform manufacturers like Sony and Microsoft are gearing up to release their new consoles, and a string of new competitors, including Amazon, Google, and Facebook have been aggressively investing in cloud gaming. What we didn’t know in advance was how the shift to digital gaming would accelerate as a result of a health crisis and economic collapse. In this presentation, we’ll review the current state of the games business in its newfound role as a ’safe haven’ for investors, the new drivers of change, and how this is expected to alter the industry’s landscape in the years to come. Prior knowledge about the industry, while helpful, won’t be necessary to attend.

59 min - How to Improve Your Game's Retention & Monetization Through Data-Driven Experimentation
Retention and monetization is the core to free-to-play games. They define your customer life time value and how profitable your game is going to be. During this session, we will learn about why customer life-time value (LTV) is important and how it is the key to making highly profitable games. We will then learn how to use an A/B test plan to incrementally improve LTV. We will do this by
1. Identifying bottle necks in your game that lead to lower retention and monetization.
2. Creating an A/B test plan to improve these bottle necks in the most effective way.
3. Executing your A/B test plan to (hopefully) eliminate those bottle necks.
4. Learning from the outcomes and remembering them when you are designing game mechanics or user interfaces in the future.
In addition, we will also learn how to use A/B testing as a way to safely roll out releases to reduce the risk of negatively impacting retention and monetization.
