    Description

    According to a survey on gaming in Singapore in 2020, 19.8 percent of respondents stated that they spent about two to four hours a week playing video games. This figure was expected to increase this year due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

    Frequency of gaming

    Gaming is a popular past time in Singapore, and many Singaporeans engage in playing online or video games daily. For the majority of Singaporeans, an average gaming session would last between less than an hour to three hours. However, this changed significantly with age – the majority of older gamers average only up to two hours per session. Singapore ranks among the top countries in Asia for time spent playing video games, and this has had consequences on everyday life.

    Gaming in COVID-19

    Too much time spent playing video games was seen by Singaporeans as being detrimental to mental health ; however, the effects could be just the opposite during the COVID-19 pandemic. Playing online games has become a popular and even healthy form of spending time during lockdowns and quarantines. Furthermore, socially interactive online games such as multiplayer games provide people with an outlet to communicate with others during a time when social interaction has been limited.

    Germany
    Description

    The video game publishing industry has seen extremely positive sales growth over the past five years. On average, sales growth amounted to 6.7% per year. While some larger marketers have suffered a drop in sales as a result of the shift away from physical copies and towards download options, more smaller industry players have been able to establish themselves on the market. Many consumers' interest in video games also increased dramatically during the lockdown phases. Many consumers spent more time at home due to contact restrictions and severely limited leisure opportunities, particularly in the first half of 2020 and 2021. Many turned to video games in search of entertainment. The growth trend is expected to continue in 2024 with an increase in sales of 1.5% to 1.2 billion euros.The increasing performance and variety or availability of end devices is also having a positive impact on the industry. Video games can increasingly be played on mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets, making it easier for the general public to access such games. Against this backdrop, game apps are currently enjoying increasing popularity. Furthermore, ever more elaborate and technically complex games can be played on computers and consoles. Advancing digitalisation means that the group of consumers of digital games is constantly growing.The industry is expected to see a further increase in sales in the period up to 2029. Turnover is expected to grow by an average of 2.4% per year to 1.3 billion euros. The development of virtual and augmented reality games as well as the trends towards cross-platform games, mobile gaming, cloud gaming, e-sports, free-to-play and subsequent monetisation through in-game purchases will have a significant impact on the industry in the coming years. The number of companies should also increase, as smaller marketers in particular, who are also active as developers, are likely to benefit from government funding and thus have the opportunity to make their mark on the market.
