1，In its fourth annual state of the industry survey, the GDC — the big game developer event that draws about 26,000 people to San Francisco in March — found that PC and mobile games are still the top platforms for developers, but VR is growing fast.

The survey was organized by UBM Tech Game Network, the owner of the GDC, and it is based on the feedback of 2,000 game developers from around the world. The GDC 2016 takes place from March 14 to March 18 at the Moscone Convention Center in San Francisco.

“This year, VR is the thing that more developers want to do,” said Simon Carless, group executive vice president of UBM Tech, in an interview with GamesBeat. “It hasn’t taken over, but it has grown fast.”

Samsung launched its Gear VR mobile headset in November. And more VR devices are coming this year, including the Oculus Rift and the HTC Vive on the PC and the PlayStation VR on the PlayStation 4.

Looking to the future, 15 percent of developers say their next game will incorporate VR, up from the 6 percent who said so a year ago. In order of importance, the majority of VR developers are developing games for the Oculus Rift. The second platform for VR development is the Samsung Gear VR, followed by Google Cardboard, PlayStation VR, and the HTC Vive.（source：venturebeat.com ）

2，Social gaming specialist Gameloft is opening a new office in Nigeria, citing a revenue increase of 536 per cent over the last four years in that area.

“The opening of a new trade office in Africa will allow us to take advantage of the considerable potential of a market that already includes more than 367 million users,” said sales director for Africa, Vincent Brezillon.

“The success that we’ve experienced since the opening of our Johannesburg office, and surging sales in Africa over the last two years, completely justify the opening of a subsidiary in Nigeria, which is Africa’s strongest economy. In addition, this presence will facilitate interactions with our current and future local partners.”

The company has had a presence in Johannesburg since 2012 and already partners with a number of the continent’s mobile operators like MTN, Orange, Vodafone, Safaricom, Ooredoo, and Etisalat. It plans to add to these partnerships to expand its reach across Africa.（source：gamesindustry.biz ）

3，If you can’t get enough of Kim Kardashian: Hollywood-style social games, don’t worry your little head for even a second. Glu Games has you covered over and over. Even if the world should descend into an apocalyptic glitter-war, you will have endless opportunities to download and play games about building up your social presence in the shadow of a celebrity.

Sure enough, Glu’s latest, Kendall and Kylie, treads familiar territory in the tallest and most fashionable of high heels. The game is currently in soft-launch in Canada (click here if you’d like to learn how to make a Canadian iTunes account to check our Kendall and Kylie for yourself.)

Like Kim Kardashian: Hollywood and its sister-apps, Kendall and Kylie is a social adventure game that’s all about working yourself up from a nobody to a Kardashian-level socialite. You start off sweeping floors in a salon (and dealing with irate, ultra-privileged customers), but over time you make friends, increase your presence on social media, and gradually become big news — provided you network accordingly.（source：gamezebo.com ）
