The growth of this market is driven by the rise in the popularity of online gaming, a surge in the use of smartphones for online gaming, and the gradual establishment of internet infrastructure in developing countries. However, a lack of standards and regulations can restrain the market growth.
In addition, the creation of new monetization models and in-game advertisements and sponsorships are expected to offer significant opportunities for the growth of this market.
Impact of COVID-19 on the Online Gaming Market
The outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic compelled people across the globe to spend more time at home, with many turning to online gaming for entertainment. As a result, the gaming industry witnessed an unprecedented surge in consumer demand and faced various challenges. Young people spent more time gaming as the medium was a convenient way to get through the lockdowns while maintaining social distancing. American telecommunications company Verizon reported a 75% increase in online gaming traffic during peak hours, compared to a 12% increase in digital video traffic and a 20% increase in web traffic.
Apart from the COVID-19 lockdowns, people's increased interest in online gaming was attributed to the anticipated launch of new titles and next-generation consoles. According to WeForum, Asian gaming giants Nintendo (Japan) and Tencent (China) saw increased sales during the COVID-19 pandemic, while Tencent witnessed a year-on-year increase of 31% in revenue from its online games. Gaming companies had to adjust rapidly to this unprecedented growth as further growth is expected in the coming years. Thus, the gaming industry proved resilient during the COVID-19 pandemic due to the significant increase in demand for online gaming.
