*Key Drivers*

The global gaming industry has reinvented itself to derive the maximum consumer engagement and revenue growth on a global level. Gaming has been revolutionized completely in the last 10 years, from organizational and business perspective, regardless of the gadgets used. Nowadays, games allow people to actively participate and enjoy their passion for gaming that suits any mood, interest, lifestyle, location, and budget. Almost all the new games include live events, pro-gamers heroes, and teams with millions of fans. Old gaming techniques are being replaced with upcoming technologies such as gesture control, facial and voice recognition, and high-definition (HD) displays; consumers have a wide variety of games available in the market, such as racing games, role-playing video games, and sports video games, according to their preferences. Thus, there is a constant increase in the number of gamers worldwide.

Game developers continue to leverage numerous technology trends, which further drive innovation and improvise the gameplay. For instance, more immersive playability through VR and AR supports photorealistic graphics, making it almost indistinguishable from real life. VR/AR gaming platforms also enable players to connect and socially interact with each other in virtual spaces. The launch of the fifth generation of cellular communications or 5G is likely to reflect positively on the metaverse market. This is primarily because 5G networks will go a long way forward towards improving the performance and reliability of connected devices
