On this week’s show we cover:

• The UK’s new £30 million Games Growth Package and other initiatives aimed at boosting the sector. We also discuss the importance of government support in regional hubs around the globe.
• Grow a Garden’s record-breaking success on Roblox.
• Netflix’s removal of more than 20 mobile games from its library.
• Uma Musume: Pretty Derby’s global launch.
• Apple’s new EU rules. We recorded the show prior to the big rule change, but we’ve left in some prescient commentary.
