The Philippines has emerged as a vibrant hub for online gaming, with a rapidly growing community of gamers both for competitive gaming and leisure. Research shows* that the online games market shows promising growth and is projected to reach a revenue of 27.75M USD by 2024. User penetration rate is also predicted to increase by 13.9% in 2024 and 14.2% by 2028, fueling the industry’s expansion in the country.
Mobile phones for gaming also remain a strong preference among Filipinos, mainly due to the availability of low-cost smartphones and mobile internet innovations.
