Segment Reporting [Abstract]  
Segment and Revenue Information SEGMENT AND REVENUE INFORMATION
Our reporting segment is based upon: our internal organizational structure; the manner in which our operations are managed; the criteria used by our Chief Executive Officer, our Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”), to evaluate segment performance; the availability of separate financial information; and overall materiality considerations. As of March 31, 2025, we have one reportable segment, which represents our only operating segment. Our CODM makes decisions on resource allocation and assesses performance of the business based on our consolidated results, including net income.
Our CODM does not review any information regarding total assets on an operating segment basis, and accordingly, no disclosure is made with respect thereto.

Information about our single reportable segment net revenue, net income, and significant segment expenses for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2025, 2024, and 2023 is presented below (in millions):

We attribute net revenue from external customers to individual countries based on the location of the legal entity that sells the products and/or services. Note that revenue attributed to the legal entity that makes the sale is often not the country where the consumer resides. For example, revenue generated by our Swiss legal entity includes digital revenue from consumers who reside outside of Switzerland, including consumers who reside outside of Europe. Revenue generated by our Swiss legal entity during fiscal years 2025, 2024, and 2023 represents $4,279 million, $4,374 million and $4,085 million or 57 percent, 58 percent and 55 percent of our total net revenue, respectively. Revenue generated in the United States represents over 99 percent of our total North America net revenue. There were no other countries with net revenue greater than 10 percent.
In fiscal year 2025, our direct sales to Sony and Microsoft represented approximately 39 percent and 17 percent of total net revenue, respectively.
