Digital gaming is today a significant economic phenomenon as well as being an intrinsic part of a convergent media culture in postmodern societies. Its ubiquity, as well as the sheer volume of hours young people spend gaming, should make it ripe for urgent academic enquiry, yet the subject was a research backwater until the turn of the millennium. Even today, as tens of millions of young people spend their waking hours manipulating avatars and gaming characters on computer screens, the subject is still treated with scepticism in some academic circles. This handbook aims to reflect the relevance and value of studying digital games, now the subject of a growing number of studies, surveys, conferences and publications. As an overview of the current state of research into digital gaming, the 42 papers included in this handbook focus on the social and cultural relevance of gaming. In doing so, they provide an alternative perspective to one-dimensional studies of gaming, whose agendas do not include cultural factors. The contributions, which range from theoretical approaches to empirical studies, cover various topics including analyses of games themselves, the player-game interaction, and the social context of gaming. In addition, the educational aspects of games and gaming are treated in a discrete section. With material on non-commercial gaming trends such as ‘modding’, and a multinational group of authors from eleven nations, the handbook is a vital publication demonstrating that new media cultures are far more complex and diverse than commonly assumed in a debate dominated by concerns over violent content.

Written as an introductory text for media and game students this book aims present an overview of industry and scholary work on who makes games, where they get made, what kind of media and cultural form they are and who plays them and where. The Business and Culture of Digital Games looks at: - games as a new media form; - the design, development and marketing of games; - the use of games in public and private spaces. Combining a theoretical and empirical analysis of the production, content and consumption of computer games, this book will be of interest to many students of media, culture and communication.

This essay sheds light on the future of the video game industry, explicates how advanced technologies can revolutionize the video game industry, and demystifies why esports have become popular as a type of spectator sport in the 21st century . The future of the video industry will not only be characterized by dynamism as it continues to metaphorically evolve, but will also be eminently auspicious for competitors in the video game industry. Technological advancements have profoundly changed the video game industry and have rendered it all the more technology-driven by sophisticated technologies. The video industry shows no signs of contracting anytime in the imminent future. The future of the video game industry is apt be more sublime than envisioned, especially as technological advancements are made which can further revolutionize the behemoth video game industry. In 2024, it is possible to play video games in an ultra-high definition 4,000 pixels resolution. In other words, the future of the video game industry will not be solely limited to shovelware mobile games pervading the video game industry. “The global gaming market was valued at $151,550,000,000 in 2019 and is expected to reach a value of $256,970,000,000 by 2025, registering a compound annual growth rate of 9.17% over the forecast period of 2020–2025. Game developers across emerging economies are continually striving to enhance gamer's experience, launching, and rewriting codes for diverse console/platforms, such as PlayStation, Xbox, and Windows PC, which are incorporated into one product provided to the gamers through the cloud platform. The emergence of cloud gaming” (“Gaming Market - Growth,” n.d.) has helped to substantially drive growth in the video game market. In the coming years, cloud gaming, mobile gaming, PC gaming, and console gaming are apt to become all the more prevalent as entertainment options among customers. “Recent advances in advanced cloud technology have turned the idea of cloud gaming into reality. In cloud gaming, the server, where all the games are stored, does all the computation work, which includes game scene rendering, game logic processing video encoding, and video streaming” (“Gaming Market - Growth,” n.d.). The rising popularity of esports, gaming live streams, and gameplay videos have also contributed to the growth of the behemoth video game industry. It stands to preponderantly reason that the future of the video game industry will not only allow the video game industry to reach an unprecedented size, but will also attract more competitors to enter the sizable video game industry. In the coming years, similarly to video streaming subscription services, such as Netflix and Hulu, customers are apt to have more video game streaming subscription services available to them with a broader selection of video games to choose from playing. In other words, for a monthly subscription fee, customers will be able to have the option to stream a myriad of video games on their video game home consoles and/or computers. In the coming years, video game streaming subscription services is apt to offer a plethora of video game streaming services. “This new sector is also seen as a serious competitor for the game market” (“The Impact Of,” 2019). The console video game segment is no longer the utmost lucrative segment of the sizable video game market. In the coming years, the future of the video game industry is apt to offer far more to customers than merely just new home console video games and new “virtual reality and augmented reality” (Koss, 2020) video game experiences. In 2019, the video game industry generated over $6,300,000,000 in revenue (Koss, 2020) from “augmented reality and virtual reality” (Koss, 2020) video games. Much to the relief of gamers, “companies are busy making virtual reality experiences more consumer-friendly, and it is only a matter of time before both the weight and price of virtual reality headsets drop” (Koss, 2020). Modern virtual reality video games are a far cry from the outmoded retro virtual reality video games of the 20th Century. In stark contrast virtual reality video games, augmented reality video games do not require the usage of a bulky headset to play and allow gamers to “interact with reality and not be removed from it” (Koss, 2020) when playing an augmented reality video game.

The Video Game Industry provides a platform for the research on the video game industry to draw a coherent and informative picture of this industry. Previously this has been done sparsely through conference papers, research articles, and popular science books. Although the study of this industry is still stigmatized as frivolous and ‘only’ game oriented, those who grew up with video games are changing things, especially research agendas, the acceptance of studies, and their interpretation. This book describes and defines video games as their own special medium. They are not pinball from which they grew, nor movies which they sometimes resemble. They are a unique form of entertainment based on meaningful interactions between individuals and machine across a growing sector of the population. The Video Game Industry provides a reference foundation for individuals seriously interested in the industry at the academic level. As a result, this book will serve as a reference in curricula associated with video game development for years to come.
