Market definitionIn-Scope/Out-of-scopeMarket structureReportsMethodology

The Gaming Networks market is deeply interrelated with the consoles market and depends on the attractiveness of the attached online services. While established networks like PlayStation Plus and Xbox Live have already been available on Sony’s and Microsoft’s current console generation from day one, Nintendo Switch Online was launched with a delay of more than one year after the Nintendo Switch had gone on sale. This explains the sudden jump of revenue and user figures in 2018. Also, the release of a new generation of consoles incites the willingness to try out gaming networks. We expect the same development for the anticipated release of the next generation of consoles in the coming years, thus leading to higher growth rates in 2020 and 2021.

These include online games, download games, mobile games, and gaming networks. All monetary figures refer to consumer spending on digital goods or subscriptions in the respective market. This spending factors in discounts, margins, and taxes.

Modeling approach / market size:

The market size is determined through a bottom-up approach. We use annual financial reports of the market-leading companies and industry associations, third-party studies and reports, survey results from our primary research (e.g., the Statista Global Consumer Survey), as well as performance factors (e.g., user penetration, price per product, usage) to analyze the markets. To estimate the market size for each country individually, we use relevant key market indicators and data from country-specific industry associations, such as various macroeconomic indicators, historical developments, current trends, and reported performance indicators of key market players. In particular, we consider average prices and annual purchase frequencies.

Forecasts:

We apply a variety of forecasting techniques, depending on the behavior of the relevant market. For instance, the S-curve function and exponential trend smoothing are well suited for forecasting digital products and services due to the non-linear growth of technology adoption. The main drivers are GDP per capita, consumer spending per capita, and 4G coverage.
