South Korea's high-speed internet infrastructure like the fifth-generation (5G) network service gives it great potential for success in the cloud gaming industry, according to senior Google official, Sami Kizilbash.
The relatively large number of South Korean gamers also lends support to the country’s game developers, Kizilbash added.
Out of a population of 50 million, South Korea has 33 million gamers. That gives South Korea the fourth-largest number of gamers in the world, just trailing China with 685 million, the US with 191 million, and Japan with 75 million.
The Google official said along with South Korea, the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region is leading the global gaming market, whose revenue is expected to reach US$340 billion by 2027.
He added that APAC is expected to hold the largest market share in the gaming industry by 2027, led by China, Japan, South Korea, and India.
