"Epic Games has consistently resisted bringing ads to Fortnite, while its even more kids-centric rival, Roblox, pursues in-game ads, sponsorships and rewarded video."
"The wider AAA games market is struggling overall. Fewer consumers seem willing to buy increasingly expensive games and home consoles."

Epic Games is struggling with declining revenue and audience engagement in Fortnite. While competitors like Roblox are successfully integrating in-game ads, Epic has resisted this approach. The broader AAA games market is also facing difficulties, with consumers hesitant to purchase expensive games and consoles. Major publishers are still undecided about in-game advertising. Additionally, Mediaocean, an ad tech company, may disrupt traditional ad processes by integrating broadcaster channels into ad activation. Advertisers are adapting to AI-driven content strategies, highlighting the importance of optimizing for generative and answer engines.
