Egypt Gaming Market Trends & Drivers:
With more than half of the population under 30 years old, increasing smartphone penetration, and better internet connectivity, Egypt is home to a young, vibrant, and connected audience that is eager to embrace gaming, largely driven by affordable smartphones and wider access to the internet, especially in urban and rural areas. Social games and multiplayer environments are popular on YouTube and TikTok with various local influencers. Government investments in ICT infrastructure and digital literacy programs have improved broadband access and youth digital skills, making Egypt a potential hub for creating Arabic-language content and local game developers.
The growth of esports and competitive gaming in Egypt is another pillar of this ecosystem. Fuelled by interest from local youth and sponsorship by telecom and electronics firms, more serious competitions with bigger prize pools are starting to take place regularly. The most popular games in e-sports in the country are PUBG Mobile, FIFA, Free Fire and Counter-Strike: Global Offensive (CS: GO). In recent years, new e-sports arenas and internet gaming cafes have opened in Cairo, and the government is exploring ways to regulate e-sports and potentially introducing it to university studies, which may further encourage e-sports investment and employment in software development, management and events.
Mobile gaming, which accounted for the largest share of gaming revenue generated in the country, had players spending large amounts of time and money while playing mobile games made for smartphones. This was made possible by high penetration of smartphones, affordable data services and plans, and the ecosystem of easily downloading and making in-app purchases for mobile games. The mobile-first approach reflects global trends with both local developers and international publishers investing in the Egyptian market and working to create a strong gaming ecosystem.
