It seems that China's videogame industry is more revved up than ever, thanks to videogame outsourcing. According to a report done by Niko Partners, a market reserach and consulting firm for the Chinese videogame industry, outsourcing games to China gives costs savings of around 40-60% (compared to games solely done in the US or Europe). As such, more and more developers and publishers seek China for artwork-related projects to save money.

And saving money is something developers and publishers would want, as manufacturing a game means high production costs. Thus, outsourcing is quite a feasible option for game developers. According to Lisa Cosmas Hanson of Niko partners, "Chinese developers continue to improve their skills across all game platforms, the country has become the primary center for outsourced game development globally."

Moreover, the said report includes tips on selecting a studio, the perks of outsourcing to China as compared to other country markets, costs and risks associated with outsourcing game development in China, measures to secure intellectual property within studios, and a directory of 25 premiere studios handling outsourced game development.
