Worldwide Cloud-Streamed Gaming Forecast, 2022-2026: Mobile Gathers Momentum

This IDC study examines the cloud-streamed gaming market from 2019 through 2026. It considers monthly users, hours of use, and revenue globally and in four geographic regions: North America, Western Europe, Asia/Pacific (including Japan), and the rest of the world (MEA, LA, and CEE). This study segments monthly users and hours of use across mobile, PC/Mac/Linux/Chrome, and TV screens globally. The document includes an assessment of key B2B and B2C vendors and brands, and it assesses market trends and growth drivers and inhibitors."Worldwide, we expect the MAU base of cloud-streamed gaming service users to rise by almost 29% per year in 2021–2026 to more than 100 million. Several challenges to growth nevertheless remain. As 5G networks and devices proliferate across the globe, though, cloud-streamed gaming is quite likely to see particular growth on Android smartphones." — Lewis Ward, research director, Gaming and AR/VR at IDC

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
