Women in Games Industry Paid 24% Less Than Men, Survey Shows

Women working in the video-game industry earn 24% less than their male colleagues on average, according to a new survey — a wider gap than in the US at large that suggests the sector is still struggling to shed its male-dominated culture.

Some 60% of women and non-binary people working at video-game companies believe they are under-compensated, according to the report, which surveyed 562 US-based games workers in July.
