Video games are one of the most consistently growing tech markets, benefiting from never-ending demand for new content and hardware upgrades. Data from Statista shows the video game market is projected to hit $250 billion this year and expand at a compound annual growth rate of 9% through 2028. The sector has transformed in recent years to include new revenue-generating avenues, such as microtransactions, mobile games, and subscription-based game services.
