China just made some announcements that had MASSIVE impacts on the entire game industry, but especially on Chinese game companies like Tencent and NetEase. The Chinese government just cracked down on all the gaming monetizations we all know and hate. Battle passes, loot boxes, whale farming... basically the entire gacha industry was just banned in China, either for the Under 18 demographic or outright.
This obviously has had an immediate and drastic impact on game company stocks and will change the way games are monetized world wide.
