The E-sports betting market size has grown rapidly in recent years, from $9.96 billion in 2023 to $11.22 billion in 2024 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.6%. The growth observed in recent years can be credited to the rising popularity of esports, increased acceptance of online gambling, higher prize pools, heightened youth engagement, and increased sponsorship and investment.
The E-sports betting market size is expected to see rapid growth in the next few years. It will grow to $18.12 billion in 2028 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 12.7%. The growth in the forecast period is driven by the expansion of esports titles, broader global market reach, regulatory developments, strategic partnerships, and expanding infrastructure. Key trends expected during this period include cross-platform integration, adoption of blockchain technology, improved user experience, advancements in technology, and the integration of AI and machine learning.
The growing popularity of online games is expected to drive the growth of the E-sports betting market. This growing popularity is fueled by technological advancements, widespread internet access, engaging and immersive gameplay experiences, social connectivity, and a diverse range of game genres catering to various interests and age groups. E-sports betting enhances the appeal of online gaming by increasing viewer engagement, attracting a broader audience, and generating revenue for the e-sports industry. For example, in 2022, the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, an Australia-based federal government body, reported that the digital gaming industry was valued at $240 billion worldwide in 2020 and is projected to grow to $294 billion by 2024. In 2021, the industry generated $226.5 million in revenue, marking a 22% increase from 2020, with 83% of this revenue coming from international markets. Therefore, the rising popularity of online games is driving the growth of the E-sports betting market.
