Gaming has become one of the primary sources of entertainment for consumers in the wake of the global pandemic, and with the shift to a digital-first lifestyle, McAfee continues to focus on protecting consumers during moments that matter - when opportunistic hackers find an entry point - especially as gaming PC sales growing 16.2% in 2020.

Launched in 2019, McAfee Gamer Security delivers a unique combination of performance and protection through its built-from-ground-up feature set, considering the needs of the wide spectrum of PC gaming - from families with children that game to PC gamers themselves.

Even though PC gamers are the most connected online users, they often forgo necessary security protocols which potentially exposes them to threats such as malware, ransomware, potentially unwanted programs, and other threats in favor of squeezing more performance for gaming.

According to McAfee's 2021 Consumer Security Mindset: Gamer Edition, 65% of Americans admitted that it never occurred to them that they might need to use security solutions while gaming.

"Consumers are looking to gaming as a release from everyday stresses, and McAfee is giving them one less thing to worry about. With this new offering of McAfee Gamer Security, our greater U.S. customer base can enjoy a smoother, safer gaming experience."

Minimal security resource consumption: With a new product architecture and a smaller resource footprint, gamers will enjoy low-impact security protection at all times.
