Online Gaming Market, Opportunity, Growth Drivers, Industry Trend Analysis and Forecast, 2024-2032


Online Gaming Market size will record over 18% CAGR between 2024 and 2032, propelled by advances in streaming technology, including better compression algorithms and adaptive streaming. With the growing awareness of the environmental impacts of gaming, particularly in terms of energy consumption and e-waste, companies are exploring more sustainable practices. The rollout of 5G networks is also expected to significantly improve online gaming experiences, particularly in reducing latency and enabling more reliable, high-speed connections for mobile and cloud gaming. For instance, in January 2024, Bahrain emerged as the front runner in 5G gaming performance in the Middle East to deliver ultra-fast speeds as well as low latency, crucial for competitive play.

The online gaming industry is segmented into model, platform, streaming, gamer type, revenue stream, genre, demographic, and region.

By gamer type, the industry value from the hardcore gamers segment will record a lucrative growth rate through 2032. Hardcore gamers frequently tune into gameplay streams on platforms, such as Twitch and YouTube. Some even produce their content, offering tips, strategies, and highlights. These gaming communities are lively, with players banding together in teams, clans, or guilds for collaboration and competition. Moreover, esports has risen as a significant phenomenon for hardcore gamers, showcasing professional players vying for substantial prize pools.

With respect to streaming, the online gaming market size from the on-demand streaming segment will showcase expansion from 2024 to 2032. With on-demand streaming, players can enjoy high-quality games without the need for costly gaming consoles or PCs. Operating primarily on a subscription model, many of these services provide access to an extensive game library for a monthly fee. This approach proves more economical than buying individual games or splurging on premium gaming hardware.

Europe online gaming industry share will register immense growth through 2032 led by increasing internet penetration. Mobile gaming has evolved significantly in popularity in the region, driven by the widespread use of smartphones and tablets. Countries like Germany, the U.K., and Sweden have turned into hubs for esports, with increasing numbers of professional tournaments, leagues, and esports organizations. The increased viewership, both online and in-person at events, attracting significant sponsorships and investments from brands will also favor the regional market growth.

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.
