Market Overview:
The global battle royale game market is expected to grow at a CAGR of XX% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The market growth can be attributed to the increasing popularity of free-to-play and pay-to-play battle royale games among gamers across the globe. In addition, the increasing adoption of mobile devices for playing battle royale games is also contributing to the growth of this market. The global battle royale game market by type is segmented into free-to-play and pay-to-play segments. The free-to_pay segment is expected to account for a major share of the global Battle Royale Game Market in 2018. This can be attributed to factors such as easy availability and low cost of these games compared with pay_t0_ play games.
Product Definition:
A Battle Royale game is a type of video game where players are dropped into a virtual world and forced to fight until only one player is left standing. These games are usually played online, with up to 100 players competing at once. The importance of Battle Royale games lies in their ability to create suspense and tension, as well as providing an adrenaline rush for players.
Free-to-play:
Free-to-play (F2P) games have been gaining traction in the battle royale game market. The major factor responsible for this growth is its ability to offer gaming on smartphones without requiring a paywall or microtransactions. Additionally, it has been observed that players are more attracted towards these games as they can play them irrespective of their age and location.
The rise in popularity of free mobile games with high graphics.
Pay-to-play:
Pay-to-play (PTP) is a term used for games that require real money to play. The primary difference between this and free2Play (F2P) is that in F2P, the game is completely free of charge; whereas, in PTP, some content or features are charged.
The major factor driving the growth of the battle royale market size includes increasing demand for mobile gaming as a result of growing smartphone penetration worldwide.
Application Insights:
The PC version of the game is expected to remain the dominant platform, accounting for more than half of the overall revenue in 2017. The console versions have yet to prove their mettle as a profitable venture and are likely to follow a similar trend over the forecast period. However, mobile devices are poised to witness tremendous growth during this period owing to increasing adoption of smartphones in developing countries such as India and China. In addition, tablet devices will also witness considerable growth due to its increased usage in education institutions and corporate offices for training purposes.
Tablet is another promising segment that has so far been unexplored by global battle royale game developers despite having larger potential audience compared with other platforms. This can be attributed primarily because tablets lack robust internet connectivity which prevents players from accessing different regions at present time or even across different geographical locations without any physical connection between them (Wired Networking).
Regional Analysis:
The Asia Pacific region dominated the global battle royale game market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the increasing adoption of smartphones, coupled with rising investments by mobile gaming companies and PUBG Corporation. For instance, Tencent Holdings Limited., which owns Riot Games and Supercell Oy, developed a mobile version of PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds for iOS and Android devices. Similarly, China based NetEase Inc., partnered with PUBG Corporation to develop a Chinese language version for its native country called ‘Forgotten King’s Reign’. This collaboration was aimed at introducing the concept of Battle Royale games to Chinese gamers who have been traditionally attached to MMORPGs or Action RPGs genre on PC platform.
North America is expected to emerge as one of the most lucrative regions over the forecast period owing high demand from U.S.-based players as well as those located across Canada & Mexico border area (border war).
Growth Factors:
- Increased demand for multiplayer gaming: The popularity of multiplayer games is increasing with each passing day. This is because players get to interact and compete with other players from around the world. This type of interaction keeps players hooked to the game for a longer time period.
- Advent of new gaming platforms: Battle Royale games are now available on different gaming platforms such as PC, mobile, and console devices. This has helped in reaching out to a larger audience base and has resulted in an increase in the number of gamers playing these games.
- Improved graphics and gameplay features: The graphics and gameplay features offered by Battle Royale games are constantly being improved upon by developers in order to keep gamers hooked onto these games for a longer time period. This helps in retaining existing gamers while also attracting new ones into the market space.
