A new global report has highlighted the surprising role video games play in mental health and social wellbeing.

Interactive Games and Entertainment Association Australia CEO Ron Curry told Oliver Peterson on 6PR’s Perth Live he’s not surprised by the report’s findings.

“I think for a long time we’ve all had this stereotype of what games and gamers are, this is the research we’re doing to break those stereotypes and show people what games really are capable of,” Curry said.
