GAME OVER. The global gaming sector is holding the top score in the entertainment market, with a projected value of US$287 billion by 2026. That’s more than the global box office revenue (US$42bn), professional sports (US$75bn) and the music industry ($65bn) combined. The global eSports market is forecast to reach US$1.86bn by 2026, with a CAGR of 15.1%. Who’s watching? Everyone, it seems. By 2024 there will be more than 577 million viewers of eSports worldwide. Video game development has come a long way from Pac Man and Space Invaders: the most advanced games to hit screens in the early 80s. The revenue has stepped up too. The one console and occasional title purchase has switched to constant demand and the global community of gamers is expected to top 3 billion by 2023 – that’s a third of the global population.
