Mastering Monetisation, Engagement, and Game Economies: PocketGamer.biz Launches 2024 Online Learning Series
PocketGamer.biz is excited to announce the return of its highly anticipated MasterClasses 2024 series. This season you can choose from three essential topics, each consisting of a free webinar and a paid workshop.
The fully online format ensures accessibility for all participants, enabling professionals to gain industry insights from the comfort of your home. The hour-long webinars are free to watch and will form the perfect introduction to the topic. For additional deep-dive insight and group work with the host, a paid workshop is the perfect accompaniment.
In today’s highly competitive and rapidly evolving gaming market, mastering monetisation strategies, enhancing player engagement and retention, and designing balanced game economies are crucial skills that can make the difference between a game’s success and failure, regardless of platform or genre. These online sessions are designed to provide both foundational knowledge and in-depth expertise, catering to various skill levels and interests within the mobile games industry.
Attendees will benefit from the insights and best-practice advice of industry veteran Oscar Clark, who has run a number of popular classes over the years, and previously was the Home Architect for Sony’s Online Virtual World, PlayStation Home, and the Evangelist for Unity Ads, one of the most successful advertising networks in games. At Fundamentally Games, Oscar offers consulting, training and publishing services on PC, mobile, and console. He has run classes for teams of all sizes (AAA to indie) and game accelerators for many organisations, including the Indielab Games accelerator programme.
Dave Bradley, COO of Steel Media, the publisher of PocketGamer.biz, says, “We originally launched the PocketGamer.biz MasterClass series with Oscar’s help at the end of the pandemic lockdown, bringing games education straight to your desktop. It was a success, and we’ve often been asked to bring the series back. This summer, we will work with Oscar once again to bring you essential monetisation and economy lessons. The addition of a free webinar for each class means more people will be able to benefit from our tutor’s experience and get a taster before deciding to take the plunge and sign up for the excellent interactive workshops. This marks the start of a regular series of courses with other teachers which we plan to run throughout the year.”
Aspiring attendees can book here to receive a limited-time early bird discount, saving £149 on each MasterClass. Alternatively, subscribe to the entire programme for just £375 and save a total of £522.

T1 claims victory at Red Bull Home Ground 2024
After a thrilling Grand Final, T1 claimed the 2024 off-season champions title at this year’s Red Bull Home Ground. Emerging victorious with a 3-1 victory over Cloud9, they take home the much-coveted trophy for Korea.
In front of more than 2000 fans experiencing the excitement first-hand in Berlin, Germany and the thousands more watching at home, the professional VALORANT Invitational tournament saw a closely fought finale play out on the Arena Berlin stage.
As the event kicked off on Thursday 21 November, the Group Stages saw both T1 and Cloud9 put in dominant performances as they each went 2-0. While Team Heretics started in a strong position with a win over FOKUS, they fell to Cloud9 and, due to medical issues, were unable to continue, sending FUT Esports straight to the Semis. Vying for their own spot in the semi finals, last year’s champions Fnatic were unable to replicate their 2023 success as G2 headed into the lead with a 2-0 victory.
The Playoffs saw Cloud9 continue their dominant streak as their Semifinals match against G2 Esports went 2-0 with strong performances on both Sunset and Pearl. FUT Esports faced off against T1 in a hotly competitive game, with T1 taking the first map and FUT Esports the second. After a neck and neck showdown, T1 finally took Ascent as FUT bowed out the tournament and T1 advanced to the grand final.
The final stage of the competition saw Cloud9, who came in second place at last year’s tournament, go head to head against T1 in a thrilling matchup. Continuing to step it up in the grand final, T1 were off to a strong start as they took Abyss in a closely fought first match. Although Cloud9 soon equalled the score as they took the second map, it was T1 that eventually emerged victorious, winning the next two closely contested games to claim the trophy and Red Bull Home Ground 2024 champion title.
Following an excellent performance throughout the tournament, Red Bull Home Ground champion BuZz of T1 said: “Winning this tournament means a lot for us. Against international teams we show we’re strong, so that’s why I’m happy we win this tournament and maybe we can keep this momentum until the end of 2025!”
