“Over the last year, Fiverr has seen rapid organic growth in
gaming-related purchases from buyers and gig registrations by
sellers,” said Micha Kaufman, Fiverr CEO. “Launching our Gaming
Store brings us another step closer towards our goal of being the
everything store for digital services. It provides convenient
access to high quality gaming talent and gives our freelancers
additional opportunities to do what they love. We want to help
power the current growth that exists in the broader gaming
industry, with the freelance talent and services to help game
creators meet their needs.”
The Gaming Store brings together digital services that are
directly related to game creation and development. Some of these
categories include:
- Game Development
- QA
- Character Modeling
- Storyboards
- Game Design
- Character Animation
- Game Writing
- Game Trailers
- Producers and Composers
- Graphics for Streamers
- Animation for Streamers
- Video Editing
Stephen Baer, founder of The Game Agency, a software development
company that creates custom game-based solutions, commented: “As a
medium sized business, it is really challenging to find freelancers
that align with your timing needs and your budget requirements.” He
continued, “While our network is great, it is only so big - so we
come to Fiverr often and we know that we are going to find the
talent and the quality that we need.”
In 2018, the gaming industry, according to research by market
analyst group Newzoo, was worth a reported $135B. As the technology
used in gaming expands, so will the need for a wide variety of
content, services, and products that surround this market. It’s not
just traditional gaming companies that are supporting this growth
-- it’s the tech giants too, with Apple, Google, Facebook all
recently announcing their entry into the industry. As the number of
companies that enter this space increases, so does the opportunity
for talented freelancers with the differentiated skill sets needed
to service this dynamic industry.
By launching this new industry-specific store, Fiverr is using
its “service-as-a-product” model to democratize access to services
including quality game development, game writing and video editing
by providing a fast and frictionless experience to buy and sell
these types of services. Never before has the gaming industry had
access to global freelance talent with the click of a button.
