Market Overview:
The global fighting games market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 5.5% during the forecast period from 2018 to 2030. The growth in this market can be attributed to the increasing popularity of 2D and 3D fighting games among gamers across the globe. In addition, the rising demand for gaming consoles and mobile devices is also propelling the growth of this market.
Product Definition:
A Fighting game is a video game genre that typically involves hand-to-hand combat between two or more characters. These games typically feature special moves and other abilities that are not possible in normal gameplay. The importance of fighting games is that they provide an outlet for players to fight against each other without any real world consequences.
2D Fighting Games:
2D fighting games refer to a sub-class of 3D fighting games. The major difference between the two is that in 2D, the graphics are drawn from a single plane, which makes it easier to determine who is winning or losing. Also, there are no special effects involved such as depth and perspective; everything is done with simple lines and shapes making it easier for children to understand.
3D Fighting Games:
3D fighting games are a combination of two-dimensional fighting games and three-dimensional environment. The term 3D is used for the first time in gaming to indicate that the game world is perceived as realistic or immersive by providing an experience of depth. This technology has been around for more than two decades but only recently gained prominence with the advent of next-generation consoles and PCs, which can support it.
Application Insights:

This has widened the scope of gameplays significantly across both casual players as well as professional gamers who prefer to compete against other players from around the world rather than face them locally.
Mobile application is expected to be the fastest-growing segment with CAGR exceeding 12% from 2018 to 2030 owing to increasing smartphone ownership rates across various regions coupled with rising usage of mobile devices for playing mobile games such as PUBG Mobile and Rules Of Survival among others.

The region is expected to maintain its dominance over the forecast period as well owing to high demand for entertainment and competitive gaming across U.S. and Canada regions, which eventually led to higher penetration of different platforms such as PC, mobile, and console systems within the region. Europe also contributed significantly towards market growth due to rising popularity of e-sports events held at stadiums or arenas with big audiences around the world. Asia Pacific is anticipated to be fastest growing regional segment over the forecast period owing to increasing number of smartphone users, especially in countries such as India and China who account for a large population base within this region along with other developing nations such as Japan are contributing significantly towards industry growth due to growing popularity of free-to-play 2D fighting games on smartphones & tablets running Android OS or iOS operating system coupled with availability of low cost devices manufactured by various Chinese manufacturers including ZTE Corporation; Huawei Technologies Co.
