Webgame Market Size, Share, Growth, Trends, Applications, and Industry Strategies

The surging use of social media, owing to the increasing internet and smartphone penetration, also help the webgame market progress at a CAGR of 5.7% during 2020–2030. According to P&S Intelligence, the market was valued at $3.5 billion in 2019 and it is expected to generate $6.5 billion revenue by 2030. Webgame developers are using social media platforms, such as Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook, to market their products and lure more customers. For instance, Zynga Inc. offers Spades Plus, Farmville, Crazy Kitchen, Hit It Rich, and 101 Okey Plus on Facebook.

Currently, players are opting for sports games, arcade, MMORPG, first-person shooter, and real-time strategy games, which are available in free-to-play and pay-to-play models. In the coming years, the free-to-play model will be preferred over the pay-to-play model as developers do not charge customers for such games and instead, monetize their products through advertisements. For example, Tencent Holdings Ltd., one of the leading webgame developers, is pushing its microtransaction-based games online to increase its revenue.



In recent years, webgame developing companies have focused on launching new games to attract more gamers. For instance, in June 2018, Altigi GmbH (Goodgame Studios) launched EMPIRE: Millennium Wars on the web, which is a strategic game where players have to create their own base, train their units, and command them in action. Likewise, in November 2018, Bytro Labs GmbH introduced a new version of Supremacy 1914, a game based on the First World War. It is a free-to-play real-time strategy browser game that allows users to deploy numerous strategies to compete with others.

Geographically, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region dominated the webgame market in the recent past, and it is expected to adopt webgames at the highest rate in the foreseeable future. This can be ascribed to the surging penetration of smartphones, tablets, personal computers (PCs), and the internet and the mounting consumer expenditure. For instance, the World Bank estimates that 71% of the Chinese population and 41% of the Indian population were internet users in 2020 and 2019, respectively. Moreover, the presence of a vast gaming population also fuels the adoption of webgames in the region.

Thus, the escalating use of smartphones and rising penetration of social media are expected to propel the adoption of webgames across the world.

BFSI Using Advanced Security Solutions to Protect Data and Financial Assets

Banks and financial institutions are gradually shifting their core applications over to the cloud network, to offer a personalized banking experience, mitigate the risks associated with conventional technologies, improve the operational control of platforms, reduce capital expenditure, and meet the growing need for real-time analysis of high-volume data. However, the deployment of the cloud infrastructure escalates the risk of cyberattacks, as the data is stored at remote locations.  Get the Sample Copy of this Report @ https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/bfsi-security-market/report-sample To combat the cyber threat, such institutions are increasingly adopting a range of advanced security solutions. The financial service sector has become a prime target for cybercriminals, as it centers around financial assets and generates massive unstructured data. Moreover, progressive steps such as the adoption of online banking and shift toward digital processes have increased the pro

RF Semiconductor Market a $5.0-Billion Investment Opportunity by 2030

The major factors leading to the rising demand for radiofrequency (RF) semiconductors are the increasing popularity of smartphones, enhancements in the wireless communication technologies, and escalating adoption of the internet of things (IoT). As a result, from $2.1 billion in 2019, the market of RF semiconductor will witness an 8.8% CAGR during 2020–2030 (forecast period), to reach $5.0 billion by 2030. Made of semiconductor materials, such components enable RF communication in an array of sectors. Get the Sample Copy of this Report @ https://www.psmarketresearch.com/market-analysis/rf-semiconductor-market-report/report-sample The material segment of the market is classified into indium phosphate, gallium arsenide, gallium nitride, silicon, and silicon germanium. Among these, during the historical period (2014–2019), the largest share was held by the gallium arsenide category because RF semiconductors made from this material consume less power, account for low power dissipation, ca

How Is Consumer Electronics Sector Helping Silicon on Insulator Market Grow?

Currently, the major players of the silicon on insulator market are taking strategic measures, such as product launches, facility expansions, partnerships, geographical expansions, client wins, and mergers and acquisitions, to gain a competitive edge in the market. For example, in January 2019, Soitec SA extended its collaboration with Samsung Foundry to increase the volume supply of FD-SOIs.  With the new agreement, these companies extended their partnership and secured a high-volume supply of FD-SOI wafers to cater to the surging demand for SOI wafers in consumer, automotive, and internet of things (IoT) applications. The wafer type segment of the silicon on insulator market is categorized into radio-frequency SOI (RF-SOI), power-SOI, imager-SOI, photonics-SOI, fully depleted SOI (FD-SOI), and partially depleted SOI (PD-SOI).  In 2018, the RF-SOI category generated the highest revenue, due to the escalating use of RF-SOI in advanced LTE smartphones and huge investments made in the
