Market Overview:
The global derivative mobile 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 demand for mobile games and rising number of smartphone users. In terms of type, the mobile game segment is expected to dominate the global derivative mobile game market during the forecast period. This can be attributed to the growing popularity of multiplayer and online games among gamers across different age groups. In terms of application, free + in-app purchase segment is projected to witness highest growth rate during the forecast period owing to increasing trend of in-game purchases by gamers across different regions. Geographically, North America is estimated to account for largest share in terms of revenue in 2018 followed by Europe and Asia Pacific respectively.
Product Definition:
Derivative Mobile Game is a game that is based on an existing game or franchise. These games are typically released shortly after the original game and often include similar gameplay mechanics and graphics. Derivative Mobile Games can be used to extend the life of an existing IP, capitalize on current trends, or simply to make some quick money by releasing a low-cost clone of a popular game.
Mobile Game:
Mobile game is a software application which can be played on hand-held devices such as mobile phones and PDA's. Mobile games are different from web games because they are designed to occupy the user’s time and attention while he is using his free time for other purposes, unlike web where the user spends most of his time browsing.
IP Derivative:
An IP derivative is a representation of data or information that is based on an original source. It can be created by modifying the original source in some way. For instance, if I take a picture of my friend and modify it to make it look like he’s wearing glasses, then I have created an IP derivative work.
IP derivatives are protected by copyright laws.
Application Insights:
The buyout application segment dominated the global market with a revenue share of over 60% in 2017. The growth can be attributed to the increasing number of buyout games being developed for mobile devices. In-app purchase derivative games also contributed significantly to the overall revenue in 2017. This is owing to an increase in spending on virtual goods and services within mobile gaming applications, especially across Asia Pacific and Latin America regions.
The free + in-app purchase combination segment is expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period due to increased adoption of freemium models by game developers globally, especially across Asia Pacific region where it has been observed that majority of games are developed and published first as a web version before being ported onto mobiles or tablets later on.
Regional Analysis:
North America dominated the global market in terms of revenue share in 2017. The U.S.-based companies are investing heavily to develop games for mobile platforms, which is expected to drive the regional market further. Asia Pacific and Latin America are expected to witness significant growth over the forecast period owing to increasing smartphone penetration and rising demand for free-to-play games across these regions. Increasing investments by prominent game developers such as Tencent Holdings Limited (China), Supercell Oy (Finland) and Electronic Arts Inc., will boost regional growth further over the next few years.
The European region is anticipated to follow North America with a considerable growth rate during the forecast period due its well established gaming industry coupled with increased focus on digital entertainment mediums by major companies such as Google LLC, Apple Inc., Microsoft Corporation, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., Sony Corporation etc.
Growth Factors:
- Increasing demand for mobile games: The global mobile gaming market is expected to grow at a CAGR of more than 18% during the forecast period. This is mainly due to the increasing demand for mobile games from all age groups.
- Proliferation of smartphones and tablets: The proliferation of smartphones and tablets has led to an increase in the number of gamers worldwide. In addition, this has also resulted in an increase in the spending on mobile games.
- Advent of new gaming platforms: There has been a significant rise in the number of gamers who are using new gaming platforms such as virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR). This is providing opportunities for game developers to create innovative and exciting new games that can be played on these platforms.
