METHODOLOGY

Individual voices. A lasting record.

Survey year
Gamers Census 2024-2025
Valid responses
14,007
Fielding period
Dec 2024 – Feb 2025

Online survey results highlight support through usage share, satisfaction, recommendation, and other perspectives. Each award has its own criteria; they do not form a single overall ranking.

SELECTION POLICY

01Survey participants and reading the results

Results use responses from each annual Gaming Census. Participant composition and questions vary by year. Usage share describes survey respondents and is not market-wide sales share.

02What the five awards measure

Usage share measures adoption, satisfaction measures user ratings, and recommendation measures willingness to recommend. Breakthrough recognizes year-over-year usage-share growth; Next Break highlights high satisfaction among smaller-share brands. Each award has sample-size and other eligibility criteria.

03Eligibility, notes, and survey years

An em dash indicates no award, unavailable data, or unmet eligibility criteria. Breakthrough cannot be calculated without a previous-year comparison. ※ marks brands with less than 1% category usage share. Winners and figures reflect the selected year. See selection criteria for formulas and minimum response counts.
