New Capital Raised for Video Game Companies Q4 2023:

$17.8B over 26 announcements

Q4 2023 fund announcements in new capital raised was +87% in value and -21% in volume compared to Q3’s $9.5B across 33 new funds which is the highest amount of capital raised in over a year going back to Q3 2022’s $16.9B across 40 funds.

While Q4 2023 had a -21% decline in number of fund announcements, the $17.8B in capital raised was propped from four funds raising over $1.0B in capital.

In prior quarters DDM mentioned that although fund announcements remain high, the amount raised has been at a fraction; however, Q4 saw the average capital raised per fund reach $789.2M (+179% increase in value compared to Q3’s $283.1M) suggesting it’s becoming easier for fund managers to raise capital.
