Newzoo’s proprietary gamer segmentation wherein playing, viewing, owning, and socializing/other gaming
engagement are the four main dimensions for classification
While every Newzoo Persona is represented among the
online population in Spain, there are 3 that stand -out as
most popular: Time Fillers, Mainstream Gamers, and
Popcorn Gamers.
These three gamer personas have very different profiles.
Mainstream Gamers spend significant time both playing and
watching games, while Time Fillers are a lot more casually
engaged when it comes to playing and a lot less interested
in viewing. Meanwhile, Popcorn Gamers are much more
engaged with viewing than playing.
