Global Cloud Gaming Market is expected to grow at a significant rate of around 43% during the forecast period. Cloud gaming refers to a type of onlline gaming where the game runs on a remote server and is streamed to the player’s device over the internet, rather than being run on the player’s local hardware. This allows players to play high-end games on devices that may not have the necessary hardware specifications to run the game locally, as all the processing is done on the remote server.
The cloud gaming market is driven by several factors, including the increasing demand for high-quality and accessible gaming experiences, the growth of mobile and internet-connected devices, and the advancement of cloud computing technology. The rise of 5G networks also plays a significant role in the growth of cloud gaming, as it enables faster and more reliable internet connectivity, allowing for a seamless gaming experience. For instance, according to a forecast by Ericsson, there will be 1.9 billion 5G subscriptions worldwide by the end of 2023. In addition, the increasing availability of subscription-based gaming services and the growing popularity of online multiplayer games also contribute to the growth of the cloud gaming market. The rise of e-sports and the increasing number of professional gamers also contribute to the growth of cloud gaming, as they require high-performance systems and low latency to compete effectively. The cloud gaming market is expected to continue its growth in the coming years, as more and more players demand an immersive and seamless gaming experience.
