Gaming peripherals are auxiliary devices used to control the actions of games on personal computers (PCs) or laptops. These peripherals include headsets, mechanical keyboards, mice and joysticks, which enhance the overall gaming experience of users. The growing traction of virtual reality (VR) games and the escalating demand for handheld consoles are offering lucrative opportunities to manufacturers in Japan.
Advancements in the gaming industry, in confluence with the increasing number of professional gamers, represents one of the key factors spurring the market growth in Japan. Moreover, the easy availability of consoles with built-in Universal Serial Bus (USB) ports is impelling the market growth. Apart from this, the introduction of PCs that support innovative features, such as high-quality graphics, facial recognition and gesture-based gaming, is positively influencing the sales of gaming peripherals in the country. Furthermore, due to the mass spread of the coronavirus disease (COVID-19), governing agencies are promoting the adoption of social distancing measures, which, in turn, is escalating demand for gaming peripherals among individuals. However, the closure of various manufacturing facilities has delayed the production of gaming peripherals in the country.
The competitive landscape of the industry has also been examined along with the profiles of the key players.
