Fantasy Sports Business Analysis Report 2024-2030: Technological Advancements in AR and VR, & Rising Demand for Interactive and Engaging Fan Experiences Spurs Growth
The “Fantasy Sports – Global Strategic Business Report” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets offering.
The global market for Fantasy Sports was estimated at US$24.2 Billion in 2023 and is projected to reach US$61.2 Billion by 2030, growing at a CAGR of 14.2% from 2023 to 2030. This comprehensive report provides an in-depth analysis of market trends, drivers, and forecasts, helping you make informed business decisions.
The growth in the global fantasy sports market is driven by several key factors, including the rising number of sports enthusiasts, increasing smartphone penetration, and the emergence of new sports formats. One of the primary growth drivers is the expanding global sports fan base, with sports leagues like the NFL, NBA, and IPL attracting millions of followers across multiple regions.
Fantasy sports platforms capitalize on this fervor by allowing fans to engage with their favorite leagues in a more interactive manner. The ability to draft real-world players, make roster changes, and track player performances in real-time creates a sense of ownership and control that traditional sports viewership does not offer. This enhanced engagement is converting casual viewers into active participants, thereby expanding the fantasy sports market. Additionally, the increasing number of sports broadcasts and live streaming options is making it easier for fans to stay updated with player performances and match outcomes, further fueling the popularity of fantasy sports.
Another critical growth driver is the rising penetration of smartphones and mobile internet, which has made fantasy sports more accessible to a wider audience. Mobile apps have become the primary medium for fantasy sports participation, offering a seamless experience with real-time notifications, easy team management, and social features. The rise of daily and weekly fantasy sports formats has also contributed to market expansion, as these formats provide a faster and more flexible gaming experience compared to traditional season-long leagues.
Moreover, the growing popularity of new sports such as esports and mixed martial arts (MMA) is providing additional avenues for fantasy sports platforms to diversify their offerings and attract new user segments. Fantasy esports, in particular, is gaining momentum as it taps into the burgeoning gaming community, which shares a similar demographic with fantasy sports users. As technological advancements continue to enhance user experience and as the regulatory environment becomes more favorable, the global fantasy sports market is expected to witness sustained growth, driven by increased user engagement, diversified offerings, and broader market reach.

Playson debuts dynamic new feature in Tornado Power: Hold and Win
Reading Time: 2 minutes
Tornado Feature and dynamic Thunder Bonus Feature enrich both Main Game and Bonus play
Playson, the accomplished digital entertainment supplier, has unleashed a whirlwind of excitement with Tornado Power: Hold and Win, introducing a new Tornado Feature and enhanced payouts.
The 3×4, 10 payline slot features immersive visuals with old-school charm, as the untamed gameplay is further enhanced by a new Tornado Feature, which can be randomly triggered whenever a Thunder Bonus Symbol lands during the Main Game or Bonus Game.
Once active, multipliers of up to an impressive 20x may activate as well as Bonus Symbols to increase the likelihood of triggering the Thunder Bonus Feature or Hold and Win Bonus Game.
When both a Bonus Symbol and Thunder Bonus Symbol lands on the reels, the Thunder Bonus Feature comes into action. The feature collects the values of all Bonus Symbols in play, including four in-game Jackpot Symbols, before adding them to the winnings for the spin in the Main Game or Total Win in the Bonus Game.
Landing at least one Bonus Symbol on each reel grants access to the Hold and Win Bonus Game, where players benefit from only Bonus and Thunder Bonus symbols for the entirety of the round. In a striking twist to bonus play, up to four Thunder Bonus Collect symbols can land on the centre reel, further amplifying the win potential on offer.
Additional entry to the Bonus Game is also boosted by the Pile of Gold Feature. Any Bonus Symbols that land on the reels during the main game can randomly trigger the feature, which sees Bonus and Thunder Bonus Symbols added to the grid in quantity enough to activate the Bonus Game.
This latest release demonstrates Playson’s ability for developing unique mechanics that enhance player engagement based on data-driven insights.
Anton Ivannikov, CPO at Playson, said: “Tornado Power: Hold and Win showcases our commitment to elevating the Hold and Win experience with engagement-boosting mechanics that genuinely move the needle. The new Tornado Feature introduces a fresh layer of dynamism to gameplay, giving players more ways to interact with bonus elements and enjoy heightened win potential.
“It’s a strong reflection of our data-led approach to development, and we’re confident it will resonate across a variety of markets.”
