Why Diversity matters article:

“The issue of diversity in gaming has been a hot topic in recent years. The industry traditionally projects an image that is young, white, straight and male,”

“The industry has been improving its depiction of non-white, non-male characters for several years, but in the last three E3 events, there has been a real sense of momentum, belief and priority”

Levelling up article:

“A 2015 study showed that 83% of non-Hispanic Black teenagers play video games, compared to 71% of Caucasian teenagers, with 69% of Hispanic teens not too far behind.”

“Over time, representation has become more frequent, and more importantly, more authentic within the realm of video games.”
