Executive Summary
According to a new report, titled, 'Escape Room Market,' The escape room market was valued at $7.9 billion in 2022, and is estimated to reach $31 billion by 2032, growing at a CAGR of 14.8% from 2023 to 2032.An escape room, additionally referred to as an escape game, puzzle room, exit game, or riddle room, is a game in which a group of players must find clues, solve riddles, and complete tasks in one or more rooms to achieve a certain objective in a set period of time. The aim is frequently to get away from the game's location.
The growth of the escape room market is attributed to the presence of an attractive concept and the availability of a large variety of themed activities within different cities of the country. Furthermore, strategic marketing initiatives taken by players in the industry coupled with an increase in government initiatives to promote adventure tourism drives the country’s escape room industry. The increase in social media networking and growing popularity of travel blogging/vlogging on the social media platforms such as Instagram, and Twitter is further expected to pique the interest of individuals around the globe. This is expected to increase the popularity of escape rooms, making way for the growth of the escape room industry in the coming years.
The expansion of escape room facilities into new markets and areas provides substantial commercial potential. As the popularity of escape rooms grows, businesses are increasingly attempting to extend beyond their initial location, whether to neighboring cities, countries, or even via the Internet. This expansion provides organizations with access to new regions and end-users, which can help alleviate the restrictions of limited capacity and flexibility.
Additionally, by diversifying their income sources and reducing their reliance on a single market, firms can broaden their sources of income while minimizing their dependency on just one marketplace. For instance, many escape room companies have found success by collaborating with hotels, tourist sites, and other industries to provide their leisure facilities as an element of a bigger entertainment package.
Furthermore, by entering new markets and regions, firms may acquire an edge over competitors by providing unique and inventive offerings that are not accessible elsewhere. While expanding into new areas and locations can be difficult and costly, it presents a crucial chance for escape room companies to develop and prosper in a competitive sector.
E-sports' growth has grabbed worldwide youth and acquired enormous popularity in recent years. The increased availability of digital devices, widespread internet penetration, and increased use of social media platforms have all contributed considerably to the growth of e-sports. Furthermore, the COVID-19 outbreak has expanded participation in e-sports, increasing its popularity among millennials. The rise in popularity has pushed young people to pursue e-sports as a job, pastime, and source of enjoyment. As a result, the growing popularity of e-sports poses a significant threat to outdoor recreational and entertainment facilities such as escape rooms, stifling the expansion of the escape room business. Furthermore, the growing popularity of e-sports leads to a decline in young engagement in adventure and leisure activities, which has a negative impact on the revenue growth of the escape room business.
