Buona la Prima - Episode 32
Pietro Faccio and Sergio Rocco from Buona la Prima take us into their wonderful world dedicated to the gaming industry.
Buona la Prima podcast is a partner of Biunivoca.
The mobile gaming landscape just changed — and most players have no idea.
The Digital Markets Act in Europe and several US court rulings are finally opening the gates of the mobile ecosystem: developers can now sell directly to players, bypassing Apple and Google’s 30% store fees.
In this episode of Buona la Prima, Pietro breaks down:
• What exactly the new rules allow
• Why Epic vs Apple was only the beginning
• How companies like Xsolla are helping devs take back control
• And what this could mean for game prices, offers, and long-term monetization
🎙️ With special commentary from Sergio Rocco.
