Significant growth in the gaming industry, increasing demand for VR online video games, and the rising number of casual and professional gamers are among the major factors strengthening the market growth around the world. It can also be attributed to the considerable reliance on smartphones and laptops and the growing penetration of high-speed internet connectivity. Moreover, there is an increase in the number of gaming zones in commercial areas that offer VR gaming. This, coupled with the rising traction of e-sports and multiplayer VR video game competition between professional and amateur players, is favoring the growth of the market. In addition, the growing popularity of 360-degree videos that enables viewers to watch through every angle with an option to rotate and pan them as per the requirement is influencing the market positively. Apart from this, the increasing number of startups offering realistic, artistic, and cultural games and introducing new three-dimensional features in VR gaming, which allows the user to move around and interact with the objects in it, is propelling the growth of the market.
