Here, where attention is a scarce commodity, acquiring new users comes at a high cost, while retaining existing ones is notably more economical. “The retention rate is a key indicator in the current market, much like in Web2. A high retention rate signifies that users not only find the game enjoyable but also endorse its economic model, reflecting their acceptance of the game product”, said Hoshino Sasaki, the community ambassador of Outer.gg.</span></strong>

An active community represents a diverse range of individuals who actively participate in the game ecosystem, including players, analysts who provide analysis, community ambassadors and more.

As a result, analyzing community data such as membership trends and engagement levels is critical for game developers.</span></strong>
