Toys and games maintained current value growth in 2022, although this was minimal, and much lower than seen in the two previous years. Traditional toys and games saw a negligible current value increase in 2022, reflecting a strong slowdown in growth following two years of significant expansion.
Video games has seen a significant shift in business models over the past few years. Subscription-based models have become increasingly popular, allowing gamers to access a library of games for a recurring fee, rather than purchasing individual games.
Supply chain issues continued to impact the leading static consoles brands in 2022, resulting in depressed potential for earnings growth. Sony’s PlayStation 5 console experienced higher retail volume growth than Microsoft’s Xbox Series X|S console, which led to significant gains in Sony’s brand share within static consoles.
E-commerce continued to dominate toys and games in 2022, due to the exceptional share held by this channel in video games. However, e-commerce also accounted for a third of sales in traditional toys and games in 2022, with hypermarkets remaining the leading distribution channel in this category.
The future of AR/VR headsets is uncertain, due to disappointing volume sales in 2022. The price point for Apple’s anticipated launch in AR/VR headsets is expected to be USD3,000, effectively targeting the headset to consumers in the premium space.
