North America Location-based Entertainment Market Forecast to 2028 – COVID-19 Impact and Regional Analysis – by Component (Hardware and Software), Technology (2-Dimesnional and 3-Dimensional), and End-use (Amusement Parks, Arcade Studios, and Film Studios)

The location-based entertainment market in North America is expected to grow from US$ 581.20 million in 2022 to US$ 1,137.55 million by 2028. It is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 11.8% from 2022 to 2028.

Rising Popularity of 360-Degree VR-Based Games

The development of 360-degree virtual reality (VR) technology is anticipated to significantly contribute to the expansion of the North America location-based entertainment market. The viewers can get a 360-degree view of the projected content. The introduction of VR-based games with 360-degree content can provide people with thrilling and immersive experiences, which is helping boost the industry's growth. These developments are prompting the major market players to work with technology providers and advance LBE technology. In September 2019, TacHammer; StrikerVR, Inc.; and Nanoport Technology Inc. collaborated on the Linear Magnetic Ram (LMR) haptic technology. As part of the partnership, Sticker VR launched Arena Infinity LITE VR peripheral, designed to deliver realistic tactile experiences for LBE and VR.

The hardware sector had the most significant growth in the VR gaming market. Hardware categories include VR gaming headsets and other products tailored to the gaming industry. The dynamics of the gaming market are anticipated to shift due to the presence of smaller start-ups and major hardware manufacturers such as Oculus VR, Sony, Samsung, and Google. Players will engage in fierce competition based on the style and cost of VR gadgets. The rising popularity of 360-degree content, high adoption of this technology, and increasing implementation and acceptance of the technology are projected to decrease the prices of VR hardware components such as joysticks and VR headsets. Being one of the most sought-after major gaming platforms, location-based VR technology is predicted to increase the appeal of 360-degree video. In the years to come, it is predicted that these elements would encourage the growth of the North America location-based entertainment market.
