Technology sector companies in the era of globalization have great potential to grow and compete in the international market. One of the sub-sectors of technology companies is games sub-sector companies that focus on digital games based on research conducted, Japan and China are 2 developed countries that dominate in the games sub-sector. The games sub-sector company can be said to be a company that has great potential because based on research conducted, companies engaged in this sector have a significant increase in revenue, but even though it has great potential, it does not rule out the possibility that the company is free from misstatements of financial statements either accidentally or intentionally.
