local studios are racking up hundreds of millions of downloads worldwide

📊 Cyprus is increasingly turning into a technology hub for game developers. Hundreds of companies now operate on the island, and the sector’s revenue already exceeds €3.2 billion a year.

📱 The main specialisation is smartphone games. In 2025 alone, Cypriot teams released more than 570 new titles, which users around the world installed roughly 615 million times.

🎮 Over 4,000 people are already employed in the gaming sector, and the industry continues to expand. Its main challenge now is finding enough skilled staff to support further growth.

🧑‍💻 So you can now come to Cyprus for the sun not with a towel, but with a laptop and a game engine.
