Online and mobile games are forecasted to continue to gain ground to the detriment of computer and console gaming. With a growing number of Italian homes set to have access to high-speed internet via fibre, video games sales will continue to shift from the physical to the digital realm.
There are rumours in the console world that Sony will launch a PlayStation 5 Pro in 2025, as an upgrade to existing PlayStation 5. This would follow the same pattern of the PlayStation 4 console, with a Pro version launched in between the initial PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
Compared with some other EU countries, video games is still a relatively immature category in Italy, with a potentially large consumer base and significant scope for development and growth. The sales performance of video games software is expected to moderate compared to the review period.
