Due to the proximity of the closing date of the Playdemic acquisition to the balance sheet date of September 30, 2021, we included a provisional estimate of acquired intangibles as a separate line item in the above table. We currently estimate the weighted-average useful life of Playdemic’s acquired intangible assets to be approximately 7 years. See Note 6 for additional information on our acquisition of Playdemic.
Amortization of intangibles for the three and six months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 are classified in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations as follows (in millions):

Acquisition-related intangible assets are generally amortized using the straight-line method over the lesser of their estimated useful lives or the agreement terms, currently from 1 to 7 years. As of September 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, the weighted-average remaining useful life for acquisition-related intangible assets was approximately 5.4 and 3.5 years, respectively.
As of September 30, 2021, future amortization of finite-lived acquisition-related intangibles that will be recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations is estimated as follows (in millions):
