Main Products and Business Operations

Acer Gaming’s core business is divided into two major segments: Distribution and Integrated Marketing and Game Outsourcing and Development.

In its Distribution and Integrated Marketing business, Acer Gaming is one of PlayStation’s key distribution partners in Asia, offering a comprehensive console ecosystem that includes PlayStation consoles, first-party and third-party AAA titles, physical game discs and digital downloads, PSN prepaid cards, VR devices, and a wide range of official and branded peripherals. By integrating game retail channels, consumer electronics channels, IT channels, telecom channels, and its own e-commerce platform, the company has built a one-stop gamer experience and strong omnichannel sales capability. Supported by console generation upgrades and the release of major annual game titles, this distribution business provides a solid foundation of recurring revenue along with cyclical growth momentum.

In its Game Outsourcing and Development business, Acer Gaming’s team has grown into the fourth-largest game art outsourcing provider in the world and the third-largest in Asia, with more than 1,300 professional developers. The company has established long-term partnerships with leading game developers and has participated in the production of multiple internationally recognized AAA titles. Its service offerings cover 2D/3D art design, character and environment modeling, animation production, programming support, and quality assurance testing, making it an important supply chain partner for major global game companies. As development budgets for AAA games continue to rise, demand for outsourcing and specialized division of labor has become increasingly evident, giving the company clear advantages in scale and experience in the global market.

In terms of technology development, Acer Gaming is actively integrating AI technologies and game engine capabilities, and is developing AI-generated tools such as GenMotion.AI to improve production efficiency, shorten development cycles, and reduce costs, thereby gradually building a strong technological moat.
