Product Definition:
Browser-based MMORPG: A type of Massively Multiplayer Online Role-Playing Game (MMORPG) that can be played using a web browser. Browser-based MMORPGs typically do not require any software installation, making them easy to access and play. They are often free to play and have lower system requirements than traditional PC or console games, making them accessible to a wider range of gamers.
Free-to-play:
Free-to-play games have been gaining popularity in the online gaming market. The growth of this segment is attributed to its ability to offer an extensive variety of gameplay options, frequent updates and new features, and a large number of players. These factors attract both new as well as experienced gamers resulting in increased adoption rate among them.
Payment or a Monthly Subscription:
Payment or a monthly subscription is a method, where the gamer pays for the content that he/she downloads in online games. The payment can be done in various ways like via credit card, PayPal, and many other online payment methods. Payment or a monthly subscription is an important factor while determining the success of any game as players mostly spend money while playing games.
Application Insights:
Based on the application type, the market has been segmented into juvenile, youth, middle aged and elderly. The juvenile segment held a major share of over 50% in 2017 owing to the high number of players below 18 years old. Moreover, this demographic is more prone to playing browser-based games as compared to other age groups and is therefore likely to contribute towards higher growth rates during forecast years.
The middle aged group holds a significant share due both to increasing penetration rates as well as player base growth patterns within this demographic range are similar with those of other MMORPGs. In terms of revenue however, elderlies hold greater shares than their younger counterparts owing to factors such as preference for PC gaming over mobile gaming among older gamers coupled with rising disposable income levels among them which enables them spend money on subscriptions or purchases made through in-app billing systems.

North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The region is expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period owing to factors such as increasing penetration of online games and rising awareness about these games. Furthermore, presence of a large number of MMORPG players and high disposable income are also contributing towards regional growth.
Asia Pacific is anticipated to be the fastest-growing region during the forecast period due to increasing internet users, coupled with growing adoption of mobile phones and smartphones, thereby creating a positive impact on regional growth.
