Market research firm Niko Partners this week released its 2021 India Games Market Report and 5-Year Forecast which says the country's game revenue is on pace to reach $1.5 billion in 2025.
That would represent a tripling of the market size in four years, as Niko projects India's gaming market to generate $534 million in 2021.
This year's projection already represents 32% year-over-year growth compared to 2020.
Niko Partners says that India is on pace to be the fastest growing games market in Asia for both revenues and number of consumers.
