Artificial intelligence plays a major role in enhancing gaming hardware.
"There are about 3 billion mobile gamers worldwide, with half of them in Asia and the Pacific", says Adam Bialic, marketing manager at ZTE Poland and nubia, in an interview with Newseria agency. "A large share is North and South America, while Europe still has a lot of catching up to do".
According to the Q1 2025 report by Xsolla, the global mobile gaming market is expected to grow at an increasingly rapid pace, with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) at 11.3 percent. In 2025 alone, a 9.9 percent year-on-year increase is forecast.
Trends in player engagement are shifting, with Generation Z and Alpha taking the lead. These gamers are reshaping the gaming sector. From an early age, they have used digital technologies, which makes them more likely to choose interactive content created by players that includes social media connectivity. Cloud gaming is expected to generate 25.3 billion dollars in revenue worldwide by 2029.
Trends in the Polish market
- According to PMR data, in 2023 mobile titles accounted for 36 percent of all video games in Poland, including those available via social media platforms and web browsers.
- The same share applied to desktop games,
- while consoles accounted for 28 percent.
Statista analysts indicate that the Polish market is seeing a rise in innovative titles, reflecting a growing game developer community and increasing consumer engagement.
- Forecasts suggest that by 2030 the number of mobile game users in Poland will reach 7.1 million,
- and their market share will rise to 18.4 percent, up from 15.6 percent this year.
"In Poland, the mobile gaming market is still in its infancy. Of course, there are quite a lot of mobile gamers in Poland. This group expands the overall gamer population, as we also have people interested in games on desktop computers, various consoles, so there are several platforms, and today the smartphone is one of them. The group that identifies as smartphone game users is the largest of all, about 40 percent", says Adam Bialic. "However, it is important to remember that this diversifies the overall number of gamers. Those who play major titles on consoles or computers are not necessarily the same ones who also play on smartphones".
Meanwhile, according to the ZTE Poland representative, despite the rising number of gamers, the market for gaming smartphones is still not sufficiently developed, although it holds great potential.
