The growing smartphone penetration is expected to drive the growth of the mobile gaming market. Smartphone usage is growing due to various reasons such as growing internet penetration, increasing use of social media, the convenience of communication, affordability of phones with improved features, social status, rising income, dependency on phones, and others. The increasing penetration of smartphones will create a significant demand for mobile gaming as it is extensively used for playing games and spending leisure time.

For instance, according to the survey of smartphone ownership commissioned by a nonpartisan American think tank, the Pew Research Center, the share of Americans that own a smartphone increased from 81% in February 2019 to 85% in February 2021, which was just 35% a decade ago (in 2011). This indicates that the smartphone penetration is growing, thus, will drive the growth of the mobile gaming market.

Technology advancement is a key trend gaining popularity in the mobile gaming market. The market is witnessing the integration of virtual reality (VR) and augmented reality (AR) technologies in mobile gaming for really immersive gaming experiences. VR is a computer-generated environment with scenes and objects that appear to be real, whereas, AR combines virtual information with the real world. VR allows gamers to escape reality by immersing themselves in a different gaming environment or reality through VR eyewear.

AR does not transport from a current location to a different one, instead, amplifies or modifies some aspects of current surroundings in a game. Key players are focusing on offering technologically advanced mobile gaming to strengthen their position in the market.

For instance, in April 2022, Meta (formerly Facebook), the American technology company conducted the Meta Quest Gaming presentation for 2022 and unveiled a virtual reality (VR) version of Ghostbusters. Ghostbusters VR will let gamers hunt, blast, and capture ghosts in the Ghostbusters universe, with single and multiplayer game modes available.
