The market size of PC gaming in the Netherlands was slightly above 250 million euros in 2018, well behind revenues made in console gaming or app-based gaming. It is expected, however, that gaming on consoles will increase the most. The main driver behind this could be the success of Battle Royal games (a genre of video games where up to 100 players are pitted against each other in a fight for survival until only one player is left standing). PUBG (PlayerUnknown's BattleGrounds), Apex Legends and especially Fortnite are the big frontrunners of this genre. Based on a ranking on the prize money earned by the leading eSporters in Fortnite from the Netherlands, 21-year-old Rojo (the gamer tag of Dave Jong) outperformed all other eSporters. This because of his second place on the Fortnite World Cup in July 2019, which won him one million U.S. dollars.
