Advertising in video games is the integration of advertising into video games to promote products, organizations, or viewpoints. There are two major categories of advertising in video games: in-game advertising and advergames. In-game advertising shows the player advertisements while playing the game, whereas advergames are a type of game created to serve as an advertisement for a brand or product. Other methods of advertising in video games include in-game product placement and sponsorship of commercial games or other game-related content.
