Japan Cloud Gaming Industry Trends and Drivers:

Japan has one of the world's fastest-growing cloud gaming markets due to high fiber broadband penetration, rapid rollout of 5G, a large gaming culture and aggressive transition to device-agnostic, high-quality, low-latency streaming. Smartphones and PCs are the most popular devices but consoles and smart TVs are seeing increasing living-room penetration. Japanese mobile internet speeds top the world and Japan has a strong culture of commuting. Video games on demand are dominated by video streaming, and in Japan, by low-latency CDNs, edge compute data centers, and 4K/8K adaptive bitrate streaming. Casual gamers play free-to-play social games, mobile games and quick-burst games like Tetris.

Hardcore console game players of AAA console-quality 3D adventures, RPGs, and simulators are willing to pay premium prices. Growth is driven by esports, virtual concerts, and metaverse expansion. Eased by government efforts to roll out digital infrastructure and localize content, Japan's connectivity, culture, technology, and demographics render it the leading cloud gaming market in Asia.
