China Cloud Gaming Technology 乐鱼体育官网 Analysis
The China Cloud Gaming Technology 乐鱼体育官网 is expected to register a CAGR of 20.2% during the forecast period.
- In June 2016, Chinese President Xi Jinping outlined his vision for China to become the leading player in science and technology. It is slowly emerging as a technology superpower, competing with the United States. In the technological scenario, rapid economic growth has resulted in reduced fiscal deficits and gradual, progressive economic reforms.
- China has taken the lead in creating 5G technology and constructing base stations nationwide. China had roughly 1.4 million stations installed by the end of last year, according to the Chinese official website gov.cn, and China Mobile promised in November last year to roll out nationwide 5G signal deployment by the end of the current year. The prevalence of cloud gaming is highly dependent on the universal use of 5G.
- Many of the country's big players in the sector have started their projects in the expanding 乐鱼体育官网 due to China's rapid infrastructural development, which offers favorable conditions for cloud gaming. For instance, GameMatrix and START are two cloud gaming platforms created by Tencent. GameMatrix, originally CMatrix, specializes in cloud games for mobile devices. START's most well-known game is the cloud version of Fortnite, a well-known battle royale shooting game on PC and console, which is now a free platform for cloud games on PC and console.
- While ByteDance launched a closed test for its cloud gaming platform Aoligame in January last year, NetEase started its beta test for NetEase Cloud Game in late 2019. Another significant gaming company in China, Seasun, created a cloud game client that reduced the size of their well-known MMORPG, XJ Online III, from 80GB to just 26MB. Live-streaming platforms also brought attention to cloud gaming. The two most significant streaming services in China, Huya and Douyu, respectively, launched their cloud gaming services in July and March last year.
- Leading Chinese IT companies, in addition to game developers, have taken the lead in pushing cloud gaming upstream by successively creating tech-driven cloud platforms. China Mobile, China Telecom, and China Unicom, the country's top three telecom providers, have invested in cloud-based gaming services. Huawei has also put a lot of effort into gaming through its Huawei Cloud division. The company wants to use "new technology for low prices and a better experience" in cloud gaming.
- The COVID-19 pandemic resulted in game delays and scope scale-downs expected to prevent the console gaming sector from witnessing the same gains as a mobile platform. But it has also been helpful because people are playing on-demand games on their phones or consoles when they have free time. This means that serious gamers, casual gamers, and social gamers all want cloud gaming.
China Cloud Gaming Technology 乐鱼体育官网 Trends
Growth of Smartphones to Drive the 乐鱼体育官网 Demand
Cloud gaming subscriptions in China outnumber all other users combined, and the country has a history of high mobile gaming uptake and low rates of console ownership. Regardless of age or smartphone brand, consumers in China play games on their smartphones and tablets more than consumers in any other region, and subscription costs are also significantly higher.
- Due to the rising popularity of smartphones over the past few decades, China's contemporary mobile game 乐鱼体育官网 has undergone a tremendous transformation. Most young people in China use cell phones to browse the internet or play games, which increases the competitiveness of mobile games.

Further, being a gaming smartphone, it will also be equipped with a powerful cooling system to control temperatures when performing demanding tasks like gaming. A heat-dissipating turbofan will also be a part of this cooling system. A 16-megapixel selfie camera will be located in the front, and a 50-megapixel triple camera arrangement is anticipated for the back.
- Top domestic smartphone manufacturers like Xiaomi, Vivo, and Huawei are manufacturing gaming-specific smartphones because they see them as a distinctive approach to appealing to their younger consumer base. Lenovo and Asus, two companies that make laptops, are getting into the gaming smartphone 乐鱼体育官网. Asus has the ROG Phone series, and Lenovo's best gaming phone is the Legion Phone Duel 2, which came out in April last year.
However, the Chinese government's gaming regulation to control the addictive nature of online games and protect the younger generation from the addictive nature of the games may be a restraint for the overall 乐鱼体育官网. China began enforcing new regulations in August last year to restrict minors' time playing internet games. Young players are now only permitted to play during public holidays, Friday through Sunday, from 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. The National Press and Publication Administration asserts that the goal of the video game ban is to safeguard children's physical and mental well-being. For a while, the Chinese government has been worried about eye issues among young gamers.
