5G/6G Standards and Complementary Infrastructure Enable Cloud Adoption in a Rapidly Evolving Gaming Industry

The cloud gaming sector is set to experience rapid growth because of the improvements in infrastructure and the availability of cost-effective technological solutions. The gaming industry is expanding with the increased adoption of mobile devices and penetration of 5G technology, which will lead to tough competition among gaming companies.

Although a long-standing concept, the cloud has only recently become practically and beneficially implementable because of advancements, such as high network speed, large data storage capacity, and shifting user sentiment toward pay-as-you-go and pay-on-demand models. Large data centers and high-speed network connectivity have facilitated the increased adoption of cloud gaming in recent years.

The cloud gaming market’s ecosystem is growing, and technologies such as augmented reality (AR)/virtual reality (VR), edge computing, and AI/machine learning are boosting market growth, providing an immersive experience for users, and offering enhanced features, such as customization and personalization. Access to cost-effective, high-power computers and gaming consoles is also driving the adoption of cloud gaming platforms and solutions, and cloud gaming will likely become the preferred gaming platform in the next 5 to 7 years.
