OCTOBER 20224Many members of our sizable community gravitated toward fantasy games in this expanding mobile gaming industry trend. Indian gaming has experienced a significant uptick during the past two years. India has a staggering 365 million gamers in 2020, and that number is predicted to rise to 510 million by 2022, according to statistics. These sources make it simple to see how successful the past two years have been for the Indian gaming business.Several businesses are promoting Fantasy cricket and football in TV advertising as soon as the IPL or ISL kicks out. Companies allow players to earn actual money through gaming in addition to entertainment, which is a very welcome prospect in these unsettling times. Due to the growing global acceptance of gaming occupations, gamers can also pursue full-time employment.Furthermore, fantasy gaming frequently offers multiplayer options that promote social interactions, engagements, and the expansion of people's networks. YouTube and other social media platforms like Friction, which gamers frequently use to engage with one another and build deeper relationships, also improve social interaction. The pandemic has brought about a number of factors, including unrestricted technology development and higher internet usage, that have contributed to this sharp increase. Due to COVID's limits on travel and the lack of traditional entertainment options, most people turned to online gaming to pass the time.Increasing interest in virtual entertainment among friends, family, and peer groups and the growth of influencers is encouraging Indians to play more games. Today, well-aware investors are also looking for niche investment opportunities in the markets.
