I believe most multiplayer games have learned the art of gambling mechanics at this point, at least partly as a result of its extreme success in the mobile market. Randomized item/skin unlocks, short-exp leveling, etc. And of course, dlc add-ons has just been getting bigger each year. AAA's are getting worse about "gamification", and I think its going to continue. Mobile didnt take over, but its successes won't be so simply forgotten
