Using search analytics tool SEMrush, they looked at the number of searches made from gamers looking for shortcuts or tips on how to complete the game. To do this they looked at the search volumes for each game alongside different words. The words they included are as follows: final boss, complete, ending, beat, final mission, final level, and solution*. For example, one search analysed includes ‘Skyrim final boss’.
When analysing search volumes for non-English speaking countries, the English and translated word were both analysed. For example, the search volumes for ‘Red Dead Redemption lösung’ and ‘Red Dead Redemption solution’ were added together to get the final number for Germany.
They looked at the number of searches made from the UK, USA, Germany, Canada and France as these are the top five North American and European countries that generate the highest gaming revenue, according to https://newzoo.com/insights/rankings/top-10-countries-by-game-revenues/.
