Thus, last year shipments of gaming PCs amounted to 44.9 million units and monitors – 17.3 million units, which is 6.4% and 7.1% less than in 2021, respectively. Experts attribute the decline to macroeconomic factors, large stocks of equipment in warehouses and equipment obsolescence.
According to IDC executive Jitesh Ubrani, gamers are more likely to buy older computers and accessories because newer devices consume more power and are much more expensive.
At the same time, the company predicts a revival in the gaming market in 2024, and equipment sales are expected to increase in the following years. According to forecasts, by 2027 the shipment volume of game products will reach 75.1 million units.
