Revenue for the company's gaming division alone in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 was up 37% from a year ago and totaled $3.42 billion. For the full 2022 fiscal year, revenue increased 61% to reach $12.46 billion.
The company made a number of investments in the gaming sector during the last quarter of fiscal year 2022.
- Release of the RTX 3050 desktop GPU, offering ray tracing and the performance and efficiency of the Ampere architecture.
- Release RTX 3080 Ti and RTX 3070 Ti GPUs for laptops.
- About 30 announced and released games using the potential of RTX (e.g. Call of Duty: Vanguard, Horizon Zero Dawn, God of War, Icarus or Rainbow Six Extraction).
- Addition of more than 65 games to the GeForce Now library, bringing the total to 1,200 entries.
The US company also announced a partnership with AT&T and Samsung, offering GeForce Now service to their customers.
So far, in the GPU market Nvidia competes only with AMD. However, we are all waiting for a response from Intel, which has been preparing to release its own GPUs for quite some time.
