Gaming has become a reliable source of escape, entertainment, and even income during difficult times for gamers. The gaming industry has grown rapidly since the pandemic ignited global social distancing measures in March 2020. The report states that there are 2.8 billion gamers worldwide -- and that the global market will generate $189 billion in 2021 and is on track to pass $200 billion by 2023. Cloud gaming and gaming as a service are also growing -- meaning if you are hoping to seamlessly blend networked access between devices to your favorite title, the industry is already working to meet your goals.
