The Power of Play: Exploring the Growing Gaming Market
The Indian gaming market is poised for substantial growth, projected to reach $8.6 billion by 2027 with a 28% CAGR from FY20-FY23.
- The Indian gaming market is projected to reach ₹8.6 billion by 2027, growing at a 28% CAGR, while the global market is expected to hit $340 billion.
- A shift to a 28% GST on total deposits has pressured real-money gaming (RMG) firms, leading to layoffs, revenue slowdowns, and a strategic push toward geographic and genre diversification.
- RMG currently dominates the Indian market, accounting for approximately 82% of total gaming revenue, though monetization remains low relative to total download volumes.

Pass Notes
This analysis, published in October 2022, critically assesses the long-term viability and strategic direction of Microsoft's Game Pass subscription service.
- Xbox Game Pass generated $2.9 billion in revenue in 2021, but growth has slowed, with the service missing its internal 73% growth target for the 12 months ending June 2022 by posting only 28% growth.
- Phil Spencer stated that Game Pass is expected to remain at approximately 15% of Microsoft’s total gaming revenue, suggesting the company does not view subscriptions as a path to majority revenue dominance.
- Microsoft’s gaming division reported a 3% decline in revenue from games and services for the second consecutive quarter, attributed to a lack of both first-party and third-party content.
