December 19, 2018 | Technology & Media

According to the latest report by IMARC Group, titled “Virtual Reality Gaming Market Report by Segment (Software, Hardware), Device (Personal Computers, Gaming Consoles, Mobile Devices), Age Group (Adults, Children), Type of Games (Racing, Adventure, Fighting, Shooting, Mystery Thriller, Puzzle, Science Fiction, and Others), and Region 2024-2032”, the global virtual reality gaming market reached a value of US$ 37.4 Billion in 2023. Virtual reality (VR) gaming is a combination of computer games with a three-dimensional, artificial environment. These environments are created for superseding the real-world environment by using a VR software. VR gaming is different from augmented reality (AR) gaming which involves the amalgamation of the digital content with the real-world environment of the user. Generally, the simpler versions of VR games include a 3-D image which can be explored interactively on a computing device with the help of a touchscreen, mouse or keys, whereas, the more immersive and sophisticated versions might involve wrap-around displays, VR headsets and VR rooms having wearable computers and other sensory components.

Global Virtual Reality Gaming Market Trends:

Virtual reality gaming is gaining traction in various developing regions such as Mexico, India and Brazil on account of increasing disposable incomes of the consumers as well as easy availability of VR-enabled games. Another trend which is contributing towards the escalating demand for VR gaming is the rising popularity of 360-degree videos. These videos allow the viewers to watch through every angle along with an option to rotate and pan them as per the requirement. Moreover, numerous start-ups are introducing new three-dimensional features in virtual reality gaming. For instance, they have developed games which enable the user to move around and interact with the objects in it. However, high initial investment, spatial discomfort and the risk of other physical and mental ailments are the major hindrances faced by the market. Despite these hindrances, the market is projected to reach a value of US$ 313.5 Billion by 2032, exhibiting a CAGR of 25.8% during 2024-2032.
