The global games industry is often responsible for driving many consumer technological innovations as the thirst for thrilling, exhilarating experiences causes developers to push boundaries. VR (Virtual Reality) is the latest exciting invention to enter the market, made available to buy as a household ‘console’ last January, preceded by optimistic predictions by experts. However, as 2016 has reached its end, excitement about the technology has slowed down, while ‘tried and tested’ platforms such as mobile gaming continues to satisfy consumers.
Although the immersive experience of playing a VR game is like nothing else offered by a console or a mobile device, it has been slow to make an impact on the global gaming market, with SuperData – a games and interactive media research company – naming VR the “biggest loser” in 2016’s Black Friday sales when talking to GamesIndustry.biz . While no comparable figures for mobile gaming have been released, the 2015 – 2019 Global Games Market report from Newzoo showcased the growing market share that mobile gaming continues to hold. Released in April, it placed mobile gaming at 27%, on par with PC/MMO platforms, yet 2017, 2018 and 2019 see’s this share rise to 30%, 32% and 34% respectively.
Nikolai Veselov from MyRealGames.com said, “Excitement builds amongst consumers and industry insiders in the run up to any new gaming release, such as VR last January. However, the realities of the up-take of this new, alien technology is often quite different, taking time to find its place amongst the wider gaming sector. Amongst each new development, portable gaming via a smartphone or mobile device continues to be the trusted, go-to choice for those in search for entertainment offering easy to access, cheap and reliable fun!”
