🚨VGTR Update Alert🚨

So there's been much talk in the video game industry of what's going to happen to Video Games Tax Relief (VGTR) in the last few Budgets and now we have some clarity! On 1st April 2025, VGTR will be replaced with the VGEC - or Video Games Expenditure Credit!

@GoAirship Congratulations! ���🏆

I must have been in the bathroom when they announced the award because I totally missed it! 🤦🤣

Well done, and an honour to be nominated alongside you!

@retro_drive Stunning!

@CryptoTaxJme Apparently it isn't true - Roblox have denied it! But imagine if one day Roblox becomes a P2E or P&E platform. Kids (certainly my eldest - he's a 'pro') will become crypto money making machines...

@CryptoTaxJme Depends how fast you play the drums. But yes, this is very nearly also me and I feel the same 🤣

[Andrew Evans - Video Game & Crypto Tax Accountant @andrewevans1811]

@DSStudios_ @BarclaysGames Awesome. Good luck!

Cardiff is the 11th biggest city, so this statistic really surprises and saddens me because I know there is so much promise within the Welsh gaming industry, especially with what @CreativeWales are pushing. We need more Welsh gaming studios!!! 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿#indiegamedeveloper #IndieGameDev

The population of Wales is 4.6% of the total UK population. And I've just read a report from @TIGAMovement today that only 0.6% of all the video game development workforce is based in Wales. Yet 3 Welsh cities are present in the UK's top 25 most populous cities...

Loving Crash Team Rumble at the moment. It's so addictive! Best part is that the whole family is invested. Me, my wife, and two sons regularly have a session after dinner and on weekend mornings. Love it. Heck, even the dog watches... #CrashTeamRumble #CrashBandicoot #familygame

Really enjoyed Game Frenzy at the amazing @BarclaysGames HQ in Canary Wharf today. The panel chat on the legal issues around generative AI was particularly thought-provoking 🎮🤖🤔 #gamefrenzy #indiegames #indiegamestudios

My favourite P2E game is @ErthaGame in terms of concept and prospected game play based on the beta but this is just one game and for mass market adoption games like #ertha probably have a long way to go and may need to flip their model. Thoughts? #blockchaingaming #PlayToEarn

[Andrew Evans - Video Game & Crypto Tax Accountant @andrewevans1811]

When 👀 the next crypto bull 🐂 eventually stampedes it's way over crypto bear country 🐻 it is extremely possible that we will see a lot of growth in “play-and-earn” blockchain-based video games as opposed to "play-to-earn" - which is where the money (and fun) is currently at...

[Andrew Evans - Video Game & Crypto Tax Accountant @andrewevans1811]

If the current model is not sustainable it could be a tough gig because any model will rely on new gamers or investors to prop it up. Personally, I believe the market will definitely grow and even already, some of the games available now (or those in development) keep improving.

Oh dear 👀🚀🔥

At least nobody was onboard!
