Player Retention

Definition

Player retention measures the ability of a game or platform to keep its users engaged over time. This metric tracks the percentage of players who continue to interact with a game after their initial engagement, indicating long-term appeal and satisfaction. High player retention suggests a compelling gameplay experience, effective community building, or sustainable in-game economic incentives. It is a vital indicator of a game’s success and its capacity to sustain a vibrant user base.
