Vietnam Gaming Simulators Market Trends:

Rising Adoption of Advanced Gaming Hardware and Immersive Technologies

The Vietnamese market of gaming simulators is undergoing change with phenomenal growth driven by the national deployment of 5G infrastructure and digital connectivity projects. In October 2024, the government of Vietnam formally approved the Digital Infrastructure Strategy, to have 5G networks available in all localities of the country by 2025, and an ambitious target of a 99 percent coverage of the population by 2030. This holistic plan is focused on building digital infrastructure that is specifically created to support bandwidth-intensive applications such as cloud gaming, augmented reality, and virtual reality experiences. The ultra-fast data transmission speeds and exceptionally low latency of 5G technology are revolutionizing gaming simulator performance, enabling real-time multiplayer experiences and seamless streaming of high-quality graphics. Major telecommunications providers, including Viettel, VNPT, and VinaPhone, have deployed thousands of 5G base stations across the country, with Viettel alone establishing 65,000 base stations covering industrial parks, tourist destinations, universities, and urban centers. The affordability of internet and data plans, the prevalence of smartphone devices among 84 percent of the population, is creating a perfect backdrop for advanced gaming simulator adoption. Additionally, the incorporation of artificial intelligence and cloud computing software is improving the gaming simulator functionality, and Vietnamese consumers now have access to advanced racing, fighting, and shooting simulation not only in large-scale, high-end gaming centers. This convergence technology is fueling demand in residential as well as commercial segments, with gaming cafes and entertainment centers quickly modernizing their systems to take advantage of the increased connectivity infrastructure.

Rapid Growth of Esports Ecosystem and Professional Gaming Infrastructure Development

Vietnam has emerged as one of Southeast Asia's most dynamic esports markets, with this momentum significantly driving demand for professional-grade gaming simulators. Esports viewership in Vietnam surged to over 10 million in 2024, representing a dramatic increase from 8.3 million in 2022, and establishing Vietnam as the most esports-active market in the region with a 59 percent regular viewership rate. The expanding esports ecosystem is creating substantial demand for racing simulators, flight simulators, and other specialized gaming equipment used in competitive tournaments and training facilities. In May 2025, Vietnam Game Verse 2025 attracted over 40,000 participants with more than 100 exhibitors, double the count from the previous year, featuring multiple live esports tournaments and showcasing the latest gaming simulator technologies. The event marked the first time tech giants including Apple, Meta, Google, Roblox, and Riot Games established booths at a Vietnamese gaming event, demonstrating international recognition of Vietnam's growing significance in the global gaming industry. Professional esports teams and gaming organizations are investing heavily in state-of-the-art training facilities equipped with advanced racing simulators and motion platforms to maintain competitive advantages. The establishment of dedicated esports arenas and gaming centers across major cities including Hanoi and Ho Chi Minh City is further expanding access to high-quality gaming simulators for both professional players and enthusiastic consumers. In June 2025, the launch of VSGG, Vietnam's first esports intelligence platform, generated over 1 million engagements through partnerships with prominent gaming community figures, highlighting the strong demand for data-driven gaming experiences and professional-grade equipment. The Vietnamese government's supportive stance toward esports, including the rejection of proposed gaming taxes in 2023, has created a favorable regulatory environment that encourages continued investment in gaming infrastructure and simulator technology, positioning Vietnam as an emerging regional hub for competitive gaming and driving sustained market growth.

Strategic Government Initiatives and International Partnerships

The Vietnam gaming simulators market growth is substantially supported by proactive government policies and strategic partnerships with international technology companies and game developers. The Ministry of Information and Communications has set an ambitious target for the Vietnamese gaming industry to reach USD 1 billion in revenue by 2030, reflecting strong governmental commitment to fostering this high-growth sector. This strategic focus has catalyzed numerous international collaborations that are elevating the sophistication and availability of gaming simulators throughout the country. In line with this, Nexon established Nexon Dev Vina and increased its workforce to 90 employees, recognizing Vietnam's competitive labor costs and the exceptional technical proficiency of its young programming talent pool. The country ranks among the top five globally for mobile game downloads, with Vietnamese game developers achieving an impressive 4.2 billion downloads worldwide in 2023, growing at a rate 2.5 times higher than the global average. These international partnerships are transferring advanced gaming technologies and development expertise to Vietnamese companies, accelerating local capacity to design and manufacture gaming simulators tailored to domestic preferences. Additionally, Vietnam's favorable demographics, with over half the population being gamers and approximately 35,000 game programmers, create a robust foundation for sustained industry expansion. The government has implemented streamlined licensing processes through Decree 147, granted local authorities certification powers, and invested approximately USD 500 million in telecommunications network upgrades focused on 5G deployment in key urban centers and industrial zones. Universities, including PTIT and BUV, have launched specialized game design and development programs, while partnerships with global technology leaders such as Google, NVIDIA, and Ericsson are enhancing local education and infrastructure capabilities, collectively creating a comprehensive ecosystem that positions Vietnam as an increasingly attractive destination for gaming simulator manufacturers and distributors seeking to capitalize on one of Asia's fastest-growing gaming markets.
