    Mobile Games Market Outlook



    According to our latest research, the global mobile games market size reached USD 101.2 billion in 2024, with a robust year-on-year momentum driven by digitalization and smartphone penetration. The market is anticipated to expand at a CAGR of 9.1% from 2025 to 2033, ultimately reaching a forecasted value of USD 220.5 billion by 2033. This growth trajectory is fueled by rapid advancements in mobile technology, the proliferation of affordable smartphones, and the increasing adoption of high-speed internet worldwide. The mobile games industry continues to attract a diverse user base and significant investments, positioning itself as a dominant force in the global entertainment sector.




    One of the primary growth factors for the mobile games market is the widespread availability and affordability of smartphones, particularly in emerging markets. As mobile devices become more accessible, a broader demographic is engaging with mobile games, creating a massive and continually expanding user base. The integration of advanced technologies such as augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and artificial intelligence (AI) into mobile games has further enhanced user experiences, making gameplay more immersive and personalized. The increasing sophistication of mobile hardware, including high-resolution displays and powerful processors, enables developers to create visually stunning and complex games that rival console and PC experiences, thereby attracting even more players.




    Another significant driver is the evolution of diverse revenue models, particularly in-app purchases and advertising. Freemium models, where games are free to download but offer paid enhancements, have proven highly effective at monetizing large user bases. In-app purchases allow players to buy virtual goods, unlock new levels, or access premium features, while advertising generates revenue through impressions and clicks. This dual-revenue approach not only maximizes profitability for developers but also ensures that high-quality games remain accessible to users across different income levels. Furthermore, the rise of social and multiplayer gaming has fostered online communities, encouraging longer engagement times and higher spending per user.




    The mobile games market is also benefiting from strategic partnerships and collaborations between game developers, technology providers, and entertainment brands. The integration of popular intellectual properties (IPs) from movies, comics, and sports into mobile games has attracted fans from outside the traditional gaming community, broadening the market's appeal. Moreover, advancements in cloud gaming and 5G connectivity are reducing latency and enabling seamless streaming of high-quality games on mobile devices. These technological improvements are expected to further drive market growth, especially as cloud-based gaming eliminates the need for high-end hardware, making premium gaming experiences more accessible to a global audience.




    From a regional perspective, Asia Pacific continues to lead the global mobile games market, accounting for the largest share due to its vast population, high smartphone penetration, and a culture that embraces mobile gaming. Countries like China, Japan, and South Korea are at the forefront, supported by a vibrant ecosystem of developers and publishers. North America and Europe also represent significant markets, with mature infrastructure and high consumer spending on digital entertainment. Meanwhile, Latin America and the Middle East & Africa are emerging as promising regions, driven by improving internet connectivity and a growing youth population. Each region presents unique opportunities and challenges, shaping the competitive dynamics of the global mobile games industry.

    Description

    Video gaming content, including mobile gaming apps, accounts for the bulk of the annual video gaming industry revenue in the United States. In 2024, the total revenue of the U.S. video game industry amounted to ***** billion U.S. dollars, down from the ***** billion U.S. dollars a year earlier. Overall, the monthly revenue of the video gaming industry sees some fluctuation throughout the year, with lows in the summer months, and higher sales during the holiday season. Going digital and not turning back Over the last few years, digital gaming sales have been growing slowly but steadily and exploded during the COVID-19 pandemic. Many consumers switched to digital game downloads instead of visiting brick-and-mortar retail locations and did not return to their previous shopping patterns after the normalization of the health emergency. Coupled with the ever-growing availability of high-speed internet connections and the release of the new flagship gaming console generation by Microsoft (Xbox) and Sony (PlayStation), comfort and convenience won over in-store browsing. Additionally, digital game storefronts across all gaming platforms frequently run sales and special offers that physical retailers rarely match. In 2022, the average revenue per user of physical video game sales in the United States amounted to ***** U.S. dollars, whereas the ARPU of game downloads only came to ***** U.S. dollars, reflecting the higher price of physical video game copies and the lower average price of digital games. Overall, the average monthly video game expenditure of U.S. gamers decreased to ***** U.S. dollars in 2023, down from ***** U.S. dollars in 2022. The struggles of the gaming hardware segment In contrast to the booming digital gaming content sales, the gaming hardware segment did not have an easy time in 2020 and 2021. What was supposed to be a year of triumph with the long-announced release of the ninth generation of video game consoles with the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X/S in November 2020 quickly turned into a tale of woe. The ongoing global chip shortage, which started in early 2020 due to COVID-19 -related disruptions in global supply chains and logistics, strongly constrained the availability of chips to produce video gaming consoles. Additional factors such as trade wars, increased demand for hardware due to crypto mining, severe weather, and war impacting raw material exports continue to plague the global chip industry to this day. The lack of availability of the new consoles also led to scalpers taking advantage of the situation, leaving a sour taste for consumers.Console makers managed to turn things around, and while sales of the new consoles were not as good as they could have been, 2022 saw some recovery, and 2023 managed to get console sales back on track, despite global economic worries. In the first eleven months of 2023, Sony managed to sell close to ** million PlayStation 5 consoles, with Microsoft’s Xbox Series X/S selling about *** million units.

    Description

    Video games have become a common form of entertainment for a large proportion of the population. They’re played by all age groups and demographics, offering companies a wide potential market. Mobile phone gaming has made games more accessible to people who would otherwise not be inclined to buy consoles or PC games. User-friendly devices, including tablets and smartphones, encourage older generations to play. Still, traditional console gaming continues to be a cornerstone of the market, with Sony's PlayStation 5 and Microsoft's Xbox Series X fetching strong sales figures despite initial supply chain hurdles. The UK Video Games industry has demonstrated resilience, leveraging new platforms and business models to fuel growth. Revenue is expected to swell at a compound annual rate of 1.6% over the five years through 2024-25, reaching £7.8 billion. Revenue growth has been supported by the release of the next generation of consoles, including the PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series X, which were both launched in November 2020. Microtransactions and downloadable content (DLC) have emerged as pivotal trends, diversifying income streams and reshaping traditional monetisation models. Revenue is forecast to climb by 1.5% in 2024-25 as successful games continue to be released to the ninth-generation of consoles. The average industry profit margin has heightened in recent years in line with the expanding popularity of digital services. Microtransactions are expected to expand, though concerns over exploitation remain. Companies may increasingly adopt freemium models, easing criticisms of a lack of inclusivity while maximising revenue. Delivering content directly to consoles via the internet is likely to become even more popular, while casual gaming via portable devices, especially mobile phones, is expected to continue to expand. Revenue is anticipated to strengthen at a compound annual rate of 2.5% over the five years through 2029-30 to reach £8.9 billion. Nonetheless, workforce issues loom, with demand for skilled developers rising but the talent pool remaining constrained talent pool.

    Market Dynamics of Games Market

    Key Drivers for Games Market

    The Increasing Popularity of Gaming Tournaments to Facilitate Market Development

    The games market is substantially bolstered by the increasing engagement and investment that stem from the increasing prominence of gaming championships. Millions of observers and participants are drawn to these events, which are frequently broadcast globally, fostering a lively community centered around competitive gaming. Sponsorships and advertising are stimulated by this increased visibility, which generates substantial revenue for the market. Furthermore, gaming championships serve as an incentive for additional individuals to pursue gaming as either a pastime or a potential profession, thereby broadening the consumer base. For example, Times Now News reported in August 2020 that the PUBG Mobile Global Championship had provided a prize pool of USD 2 million.

    The increasing number of professional gamers and the availability of a wide range of gaming genres to drive market growth

    Professional gamers, who are frequently regarded as influencers, generate substantial interest and engagement in gaming by attracting large audiences through broadcasting platforms and tournaments. Their success tales serve as an incentive for numerous individuals to engage in gaming, whether for professional or recreational purposes, thereby broadening the consumer base. Furthermore, the wide variety of gaming disciplines is designed to accommodate a wide range of tastes and preferences, guaranteeing that there is something for everyone. This diversity not only draws a broader audience but also promotes extended engagement, as players are able to transition between various categories of games. Collectively, these elements establish a dynamic and inclusive gaming ecosystem that stimulates market expansion and innovation.

    Restraint Factor for the Games Market

    The market's growth may be impeded by addiction issues resulting from intense gaming.

    The games market's development can be substantially impeded by negative perceptions and health concerns that result from addiction issues associated with concentrated gaming. According to the World Health Organization, prolonged gaming can result in physical and mental health issues, including eye strain, poor posture, and gaming disorder. These issues have the potential to result in increased scrutiny and regulation from governments and health organizations, which could result in restrictions on game content and leisure. Furthermore, the potential consumer base may be diminished as a result of the health hazards associated with gaming, which may discourage parents and educators from introducing it to younger audiences. Ultimately, the negative publicity surrounding gaming addiction can impede market growth and innovation by discouraging new participants and investors.

    Impact of Covid-19 on the Games Market

    Description

    The emergence of free-to-play games and fifth-generation consoles has provided steady revenue within the video game industry. However, since 2020, current-generation consoles have reached the mature life cycle phase, and console sales are down as of 2024. Despite the continued popularity of mobile gaming and AAA franchises, many markets within the industry await next-generation releases and have expressed a willingness to hold off on purchasing many industry products in the meantime. Consequently, revenue growth has stalled over the past five years, decreasing at a CAGR of 2.2% to $109.4 billion through 2025. In 2025, however, revenue has increased 7.8% in 2025, as releases from Nintendo and Rockstar Games have generated more player interest. Despite operational challenges and a high-interest rate environment for much of the current period, the gaming industry has benefited from the continuous releases of popular games. Generating millions of viewers daily, streaming platforms and popular streaming celebrities continue to sustain interest in many industry offerings, boosting sales. Leading companies, such as Sony and Microsoft, continue to evolve and have made a series of acquisitions, which have consolidated the industry during the current period. They have also adopted AI to automate their operations and maintain profit levels as costs increase due to tariffs. Moving forward, gaming developers are projected to invest more of their resources in developing mobile games and games that leverage the latest AI, VR and cloud technology. Despite the absence of new console releases from most companies during much of the period, consumer demand will remain high in the short term, though evolving trade policy could threaten the industry's ability to meet consumer demand moving forward. Despite these challenges however, future innovation and the eventual release of next-generation consoles will lead to industry revenue increasing at a CAGR of 7.3% to $155.4 billion through 2030.
