Demographics

Demographics are a way to loosely group types of people to simplify the target audience of a particular product, in our case, a videogame.

The most common ways to section people off is by age group and by sex, but other criteria like interests can also be used.

According to the ESA findings, the average age of a gamer is 35, much higher than one would expect.

The demographics of Unreal Tournament are the 18-25 demographic and the 25+ range, though this range is always increasing due to the average age of an Unreal Tournament fan getting older.

For my map, I think I want to go for the upper 25+ bracket of Unreal Tournament player. Someone who played the original and likes the classic maps.

I feel the Cybermall, with it's cyberpunk theme and 80's influences coupled with a simpler classic map design could win over this demographic.
