Social behaviour is changing as the impact of the virus spreads globally

LONDON, 10th of March, 2020 – Flexion Mobile Plc (Nasdaq: FLEXM), the Android games distribution company today reports that it is seeing an effect of the Corona virus on the mobile games market. Increased mobile game usage and spend were first identified in China when the outbreak started and Flexion now confirms similar patterns in its distribution channels and games outside China. 

"We have received questions from shareholders and investors about the impact of the Corona virus on the mobile games market. Traditionally, mobile games have not been affected by economic downturns.  The current and unprecented situation with this virus does not seem to be any different. In bad times people play and spend more on mobile games", says Jens Lauritzson, CEO of Flexion Mobile.
